'An exquisitely etched coming-of-middle-age story' Ann-Marie Macdonald, bestselling author of Fayne

In the winter of 2008, as snow falls without interruption, an actor blanks on her lines midperformance. Fleeing the theatre, she lands in her hometown, Snow Road Station - a barely discernible dot on the map of Ontario.

Lulu Blake, a charismatic, no-nonsense woman in her sixties, is well-versed in taking risks. So she decides she is through with acting and drama -- but drama, it turns out, isn't through with her.

Amid the autumn's global financial meltdown, there is a round of weddings, affairs, harvest and personal turmoil. And as Lulu, and her lifelong friend, Nan, contemplate growing older and surrendering their dreams, they must also confront the choices they have made that have kept them apart for decades.
