In a magnificent Maine ocean setting, in the town most easternmost in the country, two renowned fiction writers, Maggie Caldwell and Raven King, meet by chance. They soon begin collaboration on a novel that focuses on a forbidden romance, a murder, a grizzly bear that thought he was human, and a dog who knew he was.
Through a series of startling events, they realize their book seems to be writing itself. Ultimately, it becomes a best seller, and they would always wonder if it was art imitating life or was it vice versa? As Oscar Wilde once said, 'Life imitates art far more than art imitates life.' Perhaps it was a bit of both with an element from beyond directing their path, their words.
