Set in 1942, At the Water's Edge follows Maddie Hyde after a New Year’s humiliation drives her and husband Ellis from Philadelphia’s glittering society. Cut off by Ellis’s stern, ex-army father, the couple travel to Scotland when Ellis vows to redeem the family name by hunting the fabled Loch Ness creature. While the men chase legend against the backdrop of a brutal war, Maddie discovers unexpected friendships, the raw beauty of the Highlands, and a growing sense of who she might become.
