An extremist pro-life faction executes a brazen kidnapping and transports a young pregnant woman to a remote location where she will be forced to bring her pregnancy to term. Keely awakens to find herself captive in a rustic fishing cabin in northern Ontario, alone but for Du, a middle-aged zealot who has been assigned to be both her guard and caregiver.

But before finding fame as the country’s unofficial poet laureate, he endured years of poverty and failure. Born in Wooler, Ontario in 1918, Al was a high-school dropout who hopped freight trains during the Great Depression. He lived all over the country, working in mattress factories. After two decades of writing what he admits was bad poetry, in 1957 he and his wife build an A-frame cabin on Roblin Lake in Ontario’s Prince Edward County.
