Opis

In February 1982, the oil rig Ocean Ranger sank off the coast of Newfoundland. All 84 men aboard died. Helen O'Mara is widowed. Her story starts years after the disaster, but she is compelled to travel back to the 'February' that persists in her mind, & to that moment in 1982 when she received a call informing her that Cal was lost at sea.
