After just a year of close, loving marriage, Ruth is a widow. Her beloved husband, Ben, has been killed in a tragic accident and Ruth is left, suddenly and totally bereft.
Unable to share her sorrow and grief with Ben's family, who are dealing with their own way, Ruth becomes increasingly isolated, burying herself in her cottage in the countryside as the seasons change around her.
