Katie Feldman arrives in Southport, North Carolina with nothing but a duffel bag and a desperate need to disappear. Working as a waitress at Ivan's seafood restaurant, she maintains a deliberate distance from everyone - deflecting her coworker's invitations and ignoring the cook's offers to drive her home. Her goal is simple: remain "efficient and invisible." This carefully constructed isolation begins to crack when Jo, a vibrant woman, moves into the cottage next door, accepting Katie's vague explanation that she came from "up north" seeking "a place to start over." Meanwhile, Alex Wheatley, a widower running the local general store while raising two young children, has noticed Katie's transformation from a gaunt, nervous woman to someone healthier, though still guarded. When a crisis forces Katie to care for Alex's daughter Kristen, an unexpected connection forms. As spring turns to summer, Katie allows herself small comforts: secondhand clothes, a bicycle from Alex, and most dangerously, forming connections with others. Yet beneath her growing comfort lies constant vigilance and a coffee can filled with emergency money. Through fragmented memories, we learn that Katie's real name is Erin, married to Kevin Tierney, a Boston police detective whose controlling behavior escalated into brutal violence. Their marriage became a prison of fear, with Kevin monitoring her every move and punishing perceived transgressions with escalating abuse. Her escape required extraordinary planning - secretly stealing small amounts from Kevin's wallet, researching bus routes, obtaining a hidden disposable phone, and studying how to create a new identity. When Kevin left for a high-profile trial, she executed her plan - cutting and dyeing her hair, disguising herself, and beginning a harrowing journey of constant movement. After fleeing from Philadelphia to New York when Kevin spotted her, she eventually found her way to Southport, spending her last money on rent for the cottage.
