Von Menschen, Wellen & besonderen Momenten

Smarting from her recently canceled wedding and about to turn forty, Laurie Sassalyn returns to her Maine hometown of Calcasset to handle the estate of her great-aunt Dot, a spirited adventurer who lived to be ninety-three. Alongside boxes of Polaroids and pottery, a mysterious wooden duck shows up at the bottom of a cedar chest. Laurie’s curiosity is piqued, especially after she finds a love letter to the never-married Dot that ends with the line “And anyway, if you’re ever desperate, there are always ducks, darling.”

In a sleepy seaside town in Maine, recently widowed Eveleth "Evvie" Drake rarely leaves her large, painfully empty house nearly a year after her husband’s death in a car crash. Everyone in town, even her best friend, Andy, thinks grief keeps her locked inside, and Evvie doesn’t correct them. Meanwhile, in New York City, Dean Tenney, former Major League pitcher and Andy’s childhood best friend, is wrestling with what miserable athletes living out their worst nightmares call the "yips": he can’t throw straight anymore, and, even worse, he can’t figure out why.

In letzter Minute sagt Laurie ihre Hochzeit ab. Sie ist, glaubt sie, nicht dafür gemacht, ihr Leben mit einem anderen Menschen zu teilen. Als dann ihre geliebte Tante Dot stirbt, übernimmt Laurie es, ihren Besitz im Küstenstädtchen in Maine zu sortieren. Denn zu Dot flüchtete sie als Kind, wenn es in der eigenen Familie zu trubelig wurde. In einer Holztruhe findet sie eine bemalte Holzente. Und einen Brief, in dem es heißt: "Denk dran: Wenn du mal verzweifelt bist, gibt es immer noch die Enten. In Liebe, John".

Evvie sitzt schon im heimlich gepackten Auto, um ihren Mann zu verlassen, da erfährt sie, dass er tödlich verunglückt ist. Doch wie sagt man der trauernden Familie, den mitfühlenden Freunden, dass dieser Mann nicht der perfekte Ehemann, Arzt, Freund war? Dann zieht Dean, ein New Yorker Baseballstar auf der Flucht vor der Presse, bei Evvie ein. Erste Regel der WG: Ihre Ehe und seine Karriere sind tabu. Bis sie merken, dass der jeweils andere genau der ist, den sie jetzt für einen Neuanfang brauchen.

Em uma cidadezinha costeira do estado americano do Maine, Evvie Drake raramente sai de sua casa enorme e vazia, mesmo um ano após a morte do marido. Todos na cidade, inclusive Andy, seu melhor amigo, acreditam que ela fica trancada ali porque ainda está em processo de luto—e Evvie certamente não faz nada para mudar essa impressão. Já em Nova York, Dean, ex-arremessador profissional e amigo de infância de Andy, vive o pior pesadelo de um atleta em sua posição: não consegue mais arremessar e, o pior de tudo, não faz ideia do motivo.
