Description: Nearly eighty, Pearl dies in the remote English valley where she's lived for more than three decades, within a dilapidated house alongside a temperamental river. Her death triggers the return, after a 13-year hiatus, of her daughter Ada, a drifter who comes to scatter her mother's ashes and sell the house. Ada is accompanied by the granddaughter Pearl never met: Pepper. Ada and Pepper find themselves entangled with the life of the valley, each discovering that places can bind us together.
