'Kaaterskill' is the tiny town in upstate New York where a group of strictly Orthodox Jews and the thoroughly Protestant permanent residents live side by side through each and every summer. But in the year of 1976, Elizabeth Shulman, a devout follower of Rav Elijah Kirshner and the mother of five daughters, feels she needs a holiday project of her own, something outside her family and her cloistered community.
Across the street, Andras Melish is drawn to Kaaterskill by his adoring older sisters, the only members of his family to survive the Holocaust. Comforted, yet cripplied by his sisters' love, Andras cannot overcome the ambivalence he feels towards his own children and his beautiful young wife.
Behind the scenes, alarmed as his beloved Kaaterskill is overdeveloped by Michael King, the local real estate broker, Judge Miles Taylor keeps an old secret in check, biding his time . . .
