In the fall of 1969, a pregnant African American teenager boards a Greyhound bus and rides it as far as her limited funds will take her. Fleeing an abusive home, Flora Kenover finds hope and help right alongside racial tension and judgment in a tiny North Idaho town. Years pass, and Flora's son grows up to become best friends with the son of the man who condemned her. As the boys grow to adulthood, each must find his own way to deal with the wrongs of the past.
