Plot summary
Willow Creek, Alaska, has lost its cannery, and many of the people who live there have no work. Ray and Pete are brothers who both drive trucks, but their characters are nothing alike: Pete is the steady one and Ray is the wild one, and the two of them have not gotten along for years. Pete is raising a rebellious son, Michael, who resents the time his father spends on the road. Ray has troubles of his own, among them a pregnant wife. An old friend of the family, Al Bensinger, asks the brothers to take Christmas presents and a large surprise from California to Willow Creek, the Alaskan town where he grew up. Michael comes along, and on the road the three are joined by Jessie, Ray's estranged wife and once Pete's girlfriend.
