In January 1948, with Father recently home from a Russian prison camp, the Lechow family is reunited at last, finding peace and security in the Ark—their repurposed railroad car home on Rowan Farm. For Margret, life is finally finding its rhythm. Between training Mrs. Almut's prize-winning Great Danes and nursing an abused Shetland pony back to health, she has found a sense of purpose in the animals she loves. Yet life remains complicated: her younger sister Andrea is in trouble at school, her brother Matthias is distracted by a superficial romance, and a determined young schoolmaster is working to transform a bombed-out farm into a home for veterans.
