In August 1942, Frankie Washburn visits his family's rustic Minnesota resort before he joins the war as a bombardier. Awaiting him are his hovering mother, distant father, the Indian caretaker who's been more like a father to him, and Billy, his childhood friend who has become something much more intimate. Before they can celebrate the search for an escaped German POW explodes in violence, with consequences that will reverberate for years.
