1928 à Perdido. Alors que le clan Caskey se déchire dans la guerre intestine et sans merci que se livrent Mary-Love et sa belle-fille, et tandis que d'autres crises - conjugales, économiques, existentielles - aux répercussions défiant l'imagination se profilent, dans les recoins sombres de la maison d'Elinor, la plus grande de la ville, les mauvais souvenirs rôdent et tissent, implacables, leurs toiles mortelles.

Tel un organisme vivant, le clan Caskey se développe et se transforme. Certains font face à la mort, d'autres accueillent la vie. Entre rapprochements inattendus, haines sourdes et séparations inévitables, les relations évoluent. Miriam, désormais à la tête de la scierie et noyau dur de la famille, ne cesse de faire croître la richesse. Suite à une découverte surprenante et miraculeuse – sauf pour une personne –, c'est bientôt la ville entière qui va prospérer. Mais cette soudaine fortune suffira-t-elle, alors que la nature commence à réclamer son dû ?

Tandis que la ville se remet à peine d'une crue dévastatrice, le chantier d'une digue censée la protéger charrie son lot de conséquences : main d'œuvre incontrôlable, courants capricieux, disparitions inquiétantes.

Pendant ce temps, dans le clan Caskey, Mary-Love, la matriarche, voit ses machinations se heurter à celles d'Elinor, son étrange belle-fille, mais la lutte ne fait que commencer.

Une nouvelle ère s'ouvre pour le clan Caskey : les années d'acharnement d'Elinor vont enfin porter leurs fruits ; les ennemies d'hier sont sur le point de devenir les amies de demain ; et des changements surgissent d'où personne ne les attendait. Le conflit en Europe a fait affluer du sang neuf jusqu'à Perdido. Désormais les hommes vont et viennent comme des marionnettes sur la propriété des Caskey, sans se douter que, peut-être, leur vie ne tient qu'à un fil.

Pâques 1919, alors que les flots menaçant Perdido submergent cette petite ville du nord de l'Alabama, un clan de riches propriétaires terriens, les Caskey, doivent faire face aux avaries de leurs scieries, à la perte de leur bois et aux incalculables dégâts provoqués par l'implacable crue de la rivière Blackwater.

Si le clan Caskey accuse le poids des ans, il est loin de s'être assagi : révélations écrasantes, unions insolites et réceptions fastueuses rythment leur vie dans une insouciance bienheureuse. Mais quelque chose surplombe Perdido, ses habitants et ses rivières. Le temps des prophéties est enfin venu.
