When Julia Davidsson's son disappeared, there were no answers - only a fruitless search by police and volunteers on the remote island of Oland, off the coast of Sweden. Now Julia's father has received a package in the mail. In it, lovingly wrapped, is one of Jens' sandals - sandals Julia put on her son's feet that very last morning. Suddenly Julia, who has spent twenty years in paralyzing grief, has no choice but to return - to the island she hoped she'd left behind forever, to her estranged father, who always refused to believe that Jens was dead.
