Four sisters alone on a hiking trip. Will it make them or break them?
Helen, nearly forty, returns to Stella Mare after twenty years with secrets. The village reminds her of things she'd rather forget, including her grief from her mother's death, but she has hopes for her family. Turns out, being with her sisters is impossible. They don't understand her, and she can't understand them, though she's tried.
When the bickering becomes too contentious to be ignored, Helen is ordered to fix it. A hiking trip is Helen's answer, even when the hike consultant suggests they're better suited for a day at the spa.
They agree to a four-day backpacking trip along the Bay of Fundy. Only a few kilometers from home, it's truly a world apart. Adversity makes a trip an adventure, and there's plenty of both for each sister. The Fundy Footpath, beautiful and challenging, offers gifts: a chance to lead, to follow, to take care of each other, to allow others to care. But the gift you get might not be the gift you wanted.
With only themselves to count on, their connections are strained and tested, and the truth begs to be heard. Helen's secrets surface, endangering everyone. Perhaps no one will get what they want, but will they get what they deserve?
The Madison sisters embark on a journey of secrets and rediscovery in the final volume of the Sisters of Stella Mare quartet.
