The narrative explores the challenges faced by military families when a parent goes to war, focusing on the strain on Jolene's marriage with Michael and the difficulties her daughters face with her absence. Upon her return, Jolene grapples with significant physical and emotional wounds, embarking on a difficult path to recovery while her family tries to adjust to a new reality. The book delves into themes of love, loss, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of family in the face of war's lasting impact on the home front.
