Overview
ACROSS THE RIVER, A CHANCE AT HOME.
Winter is closing the river. Jessie is running out of strength. Ten children follow him north along the abandoned tracks, and one boy's fever is getting worse.
Farther up the line, a signal station offers shelter. Jessie has little left to offer except his hands and whatever work they can still do.
Across the water, there is talk of a doctor, a school, and families with room to spare. Getting there means a cable ferry and a narrowing window before the river freezes.
The children are beginning to imagine lives beyond the tracks. To give them that future, Jessie may have to trust other people with the lives he has fought so hard to protect.
