With the decision made, Greta leaves the land and people she trusts to head west with her seven daughters and best friend Ellie. They begin a quest no woman at that time would attempt without the protection of a man. Heading into a land they know nothing about, people they fear to trust, with the constant thought of where their new home will be, and Greta's nagging thoughts of Matt.
When disaster strikes, it puts their strength and loyalties to the test. Who will continue the quest to the new land? Will some turn back? Will some stay where they are? Or will they all hold true to each other and push onward into the unknown territories?
