Several years after the bitter dissolution of the Becker family, Richard and Solomon--father and son--die on the same day. Shortly after returning home and still unaware of the violence ahead of them, Naomi and her mother Ruth travel across the country to collect the remains of both men and confront the legacies they left behind. Along the way, Naomi and her mother discover secrets about their family and each other, and soon encounter the dangerous and paranoid militia extremists with whom Solomon--along with an old childhood friend, Andrew Cook--had become entangled. As violent forces collide, Naomi, Ruth, and Andrew are forced to reckon with their pasts and their place in an increasingly dangerous world.
