Plot summary
Beth Macauley's husband John dies unexpectedly, leaving her with no job skills and a pile of debt from renovating their house outside Bingham. She sells the house and the family pickup and takes her sons Chris and Matt to an apartment in Baltimore. Chris wants no one to take his father's place and has little patience for Charles Simon, the musician who shows an interest in Beth, while he tries to get closer to Jody, a radiographer in the building. Matt, the younger boy, teams up with a schoolmate named Winston Buckley and dreams of buying the family's old house back. Beth looks for work she can stand and tries to hold her family together.
