After a seemingly chance encounter at a train station in Japan, Elaine Chieko Packard and Connor McKenzie find themselves the unwitting participants in an arranged marriage. The matchmakers in this case are an Osaka samurai academic and a Scottish Mormon polygamist. The union these two raconteurs plot for their great-great-grandchildren is one their descendants could never have anticipated, for this o-miai exists only on "the path of dreams."
