Three women. Three dreams. One hope for the future... Sarah Novak's near-death experience in the mountains has forced her to acknowledge her love for Lee Logan. She's determined to change the Riverford School Board's ban on married women teachers. Victoria Hodges is painting pictures depicting strong women breaking through traditional gender barriers. She's determined to be one of the first women to have a showing in New York in the new century. Christine Boyd has defied the restrictive traditions of widowhood and performed her first public concert in Colorado. She's determined to open concert stages to women and to pave the way for her musically talented daughter. All three women have gained new strength, new visions at the first Colorado Chautauqua, but now it's time to go home. Will they have the courage, the strength to destroy restrictions on women in the upcoming new century? The train awaits… Riverford, with all its stagnant traditions, is a mere twenty-four hours away. The time has come to test the determination of these women. But forces they never dreamed of are already arrayed against them. Can they make the new century accept the new woman?
