When Linda doesn't receive the marriage proposal she had long been expecting from Hank on her 41st birthday, she reluctantly visits Angelica, a fortune teller. Angelica predicts that Linda will soon be leaving Hank for a romantic and music-filled Odyssey in Europe. There, a "Russian icon" will lead to her future husband, a "tall man with glasses."

Skeptical at first, but eager to explore her Eastern European roots and reignite her passion for music, Linda moves to Hungary, land of her musical idol, Franz Liszt. In Budapest, she reinvents herself as an English teacher and joins a chorus. Soon she's performing at the Liszt Academy of Music and Tel Aviv's Opera House.

Although Linda vows to "settle down, not settle for," she is tempted by romantic close calls during her travels abroad. With her singing and teaching gigs ending, she flies to Finland for one last trip before moving back to Boston. Is her Odyssey over, or is it just beginning?
