In the fall of 1916, America prepares for war—but in the community of Tamarack Lake, the focus is on the sick. Wealthy tubercular patients live in private cure cottages; charity patients, mainly immigrants, fill the large public sanatorium.  But when the well-meaning efforts of one enterprising patient lead to a tragic accident and a terrible betrayal, the war comes home.
