Based on actual events of the 1847 Oregon migration, this story follows two characters of remarkable complexity and strength in a journey of survival and redemption. James MacLaren is searching for the wife that deserted him and their children, who later die of smallpox. Lucy is a remarried widow and mother, reluctantly heading west.
