Living in grim Depression-era Toronto, Ivy Chalmers lives with her would-be actress mother and has never met her father. Come Summer 1931, Ivy is sent to stay with her paternal grandmother in Larkin, Ontario... and her father, Alva, mysteriously shows up, and is not the Prince Charming Ivy imagined. When a chance friendship with local teenager Charlie Bayliss unveils a connection to Ivy she never could have imagined, no one's life will be the same.
