English Summary:

Theresa Osborne, a former reporter, works as a researcher for the Chicago Tribune. On a trip to Cape Cod, she finds a mysterious, intriguing and typed love letter in a bottle in the sand, addressed to Catherine. She is fascinated by it and shows it to her colleagues. They print it in their newspaper without the knowledge of Theresa and get numerous responses. One of the responses contains an attached letter which was addressed to the same person and written in the same tone. Later, they receive another letter of the same kind from one of the readers which was not addressed to Catherine, but typed on the same notepad. Eventually, they track the author down with the help of the typewriter and the notepad used. His name is Garrett Blake and he lives quietly on the Outer Banks of North Carolina near his father, Dodge.

Theresa goes to Outer Banks to research it further but when she meets him, they are attracted to each other and start becoming better acquainted. She tries to tell him about the original purpose of her visit but fears that she might lose him and postpones it. Along with the literal distance between them — they live hundreds of miles apart — there is another problem: Garrett cannot quite forgive Catherine for dying and leaving him.

Hungarian Summary:

Theresa éppen túlesett egy fájdalmas váláson, és két dolog maradt, ami kitölti életét: kisfia, Jason és a munkája a Chicago Tribune riportereként. Egy ma- gányos hétvégén azonban, amíg kisfia az apját látogatja meg, élete regényes fordulatot vesz. Tengerparti sétája során talál egy palackot, benne megindító, szenvedélyes hangú üzenet, G. aláírással. A levél költőisége és fájdalma szí- ven üti Theresát, és szinte beleszeret a férfibe, akit sohasem látott. Aztán nyomozni kezd a különös írás szerzője után. A keresés végül sikerrel jár. A szomorú sorokat bizonyos Garret Blake vetette papírra, Észak-Carolinában él és vitorláshajók építésével foglalkozik. A férfi imádott felesége halála óta nem találja helyét az emberek között, és az apjával töltött időt leszámítva szinte teljes magányban tölti napjait.
