A drama of murder, love, and redemption set in Nova Scotia in the final year of World War I. It’s 1918. The war in Europe grinds on, and the Spanish flu seems to be on an insatiable killing spree. In Parrsboro, a tiny fishing community in Nova Scotia, Elizabeth Frame murders her husband hours after their wedding and thrusts the revolver into the blowhole of a beached whale. Toby Havenshaw covers the hearing for the Halifax Evening Mail and finds the people of the village delirious with unprecedented grief and bewilderment. His diary traces the details of Elizabeth’s story of adultery and murder, as well as his own beautiful relationship with his wife, Amelia, just home from serving as a surgeon at the front lines in France and Belgium. Come to the Window explores a question both universal and how does one recover hope in a time of horror?
