Description
The matriarch of a Long Island clan with a stubbornly suicidal son and a defiant, restless granddaughter, Esther, has hired a Russian landscaper to watch over the family as well as the grounds of their secluded waterfront estate. But he has been watching Esther, too. And his love for her is growing wild enough to uproot them all.
