Frances happily married for many years and suddenly plunged into mourning. Her international celebrity husband Steve has died leaving her unprepared and vulnerable. At first she is completely submerged in her own loss until shocked into feeling by the unexpected revelations and private sufferings of others she is drawn agonizingly into new life - not into perfect happiness but into the sunlight of new hope.
