Meet Eve, who has left her thirty-year career to become a Free Spirit; Sally, who has waved goodbye to her indifferent husband and two grown-up children; and Anastasia, a defiantly independent narrowboat-dweller, who is suddenly landlocked and vulnerable.
Before they quite know what theya�TMve done, Sally and Eve agree to drive Anastasiaa�TMs narrowboat on a journey through the canals of England, as she awaits a life-saving operation. As they glide gently a�" and not so gently a�" through the countryside, the eccentricities and challenges of narrowboat life draw them inexorably together, and a tender and unforgettable story unfolds. At summera�TMs end, all three women must decide whether to return to the lives they left behind, or forge a new path forward.
