Alice and Howard Goodwin live with their two daughters on a dairy farm in Wisconsin. When a neighbor's daughter drowns in their pond, the community isolates them and Alice ends up at the center of a legal trial. The novel alternates between Alice's and Howard's voices and deals with guilt, redemption, and social judgment in a domestic and legal drama.
