Résumé
Postwar New Brunswick. Mary Jameson, the widow of a lumber magnate, hopes to stymie the prophecy she receives from a fortune-teller - that her oldest son will be powerful and her younger son will bring glory upon the family, but… they will be the end of the family. When Will, the brash older brother, suffers a fatal logging accident, and Owen, the intellectual younger son, returns a wounded hero from WWII, it seems the prophecy may come true. Some strong language and some descriptions of violence. 2006.
