Al and Joy Jenkins and Frank and Helen Wilson fit the dictionary definition of good friends perfectly. Joy and Helen grew up together in Prairie Rose, ND; the couples stood up for each other's weddings; the guys played Santa for each other's kids for many years; and their families still vacation together. With all that history, they think they know each other inside out. But when the four friends turn fifty, secrets emerge. Helen thinks Frank is planning their long-awaited vacation. Wrong. Al and Joy can't believe they could have marriage problems; their biggest crisis is far behind them. Wrong. Frank thinks he's hot stuff. Wrong. When one of the four friends gets blown off-course, destructive decisions and devastating actions thrust all of them into the path of a dangerous storm.
