the long version

It's 1953 and the U.S. is settling into life after peace talks in Korea. Pregnant, alone and unsure of her future, Elaine Reilly boards a train and experiences a chance encounter with a real life hero.

Involvement with Elaine, run-ins with childhood nemesis Lloyd DeFoe and small town life in general complicate what should be the healing power of Mashkiki Rapids.
