In 1888, the lumber industry in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, is turning ordinary citizens into millionaires. John and Mary Richardson, along with their daughter, Sarah, enjoy a privileged life on Millionaire’s Row. One week before Sarah’s fourteenth birthday, Mary’s affair with the local minister is exposed, leading to a series of changes that Sarah is powerless to stop. Mary returns to a forgotten past, hoping to find resolution, while Sarah loses everything familiar when her father moves them to a small village in the northern wilderness to escape the Williamsport gossip. It is a year that will change them in unexpected ways.
