Overview

Disillusioned by the Vietnam War and their troubled pasts, Kate and Andy leave New York City for a remote Nova Scotia fishing village. In this barren place, they are swept into the rogue wave of change, a love triangle and a tragic accident. Shoal water is a treacherous place. Not out on the deep water, and not on land, it's in a place in between, full of unexpected hazards-submerged sandbars, diffracted waves, counter currents. Shoal Water is also the unflinching account of a woman's passage out of dependence into self-possession as she navigates dangerous waters and gains the power to redeem loss and find forgiveness.
