A family saga, set during the Great Depression, when hope and opportunity clashed for all who tried to make a living off the land. Based on the true story of her grandmother's trials, Diana Stevan continues the amazing tale of Lukia, a woman who showed - no matter what life threw her - where there's a will, there's a way. When Lukia Mazurets, a Ukrainian peasant farmer, and her family immigrate to Canada in 1929, she has no idea the stock market is about to crash and throw the world into a deep depression. For the next seven years, she and her children will be tested not only by life as immigrants in a strange country but also by the ravages of nature. The threat to family security will also come from her rebellious son, her willful daughter, her arrogant brother, and the married son she's come to rely on. And to add to the turbulence in her home, she'll be romanced, awakening desire she thought was long gone.
