Her uncle's oceanfront home, CAPTAIN'S WALK, isn't fancy, and she isn't a 'beach person, ' but she decides CAPTAIN'S WALK in winter is a great place to hide from her troubles.

Frannie's mother wants her back home and Brian wants to meet the real woman he senses is hiding behind the good manners and expensive clothing, but Frannie wants to move forward with her life. To do that she needs questions answered. With the right information there's a good chance she'll will be able to affect not only a change in her life, but also a change of heart.
