Annie's Search for Hope and Healing in Anselby-the-Sea
Amidst the tumultuous aftermath of World War II, a grieving fisherman sends a poem to a local newspaper. It is a plea for hope, meaning, and... stones. His message? Send me a stone for a loved one you miss, and I will build something that breathes life. As the poem spreads farther than intended, Robert Bliss's humble words reshape the nation. Boxes of rocks flood the coastal village of Maine, and he sets his calloused hands to work. Until tragedy strikes.
Decades later, Annie Bliss is summoned back to Anselby-the-Sea, as GrandBob, the man who offered her solace during her most challenging summer, now needs her help. But what she finds is a mystery: a wall of heavy boxes filled with stones. With the assistance of the town's charming and enigmatic mailman, Annie begins unraveling the story layer by layer, yearning to rediscover the hope that once kept GrandBob alive. In the process, she uncovers the truth behind the rift in her family's past. As GrandBob faces mortality, Annie wages a battle against time, an enemy as ruthless as the waves crashing against the rocks.
