For Kathrine Landers, things could be worse. Since she was a young girl, she has enjoyed walks with her daddy to listen to him play music with his friends in the preacher's barn on Saturday nights. Their stops to rest at the mysterious statue of Mr. Long, who watches over the graveyard at the center of town, are her favorite part. It's a good place, a peaceful place, and a place where Kathrine's life will change forever. When tragedy strikes, Kathrine must come to terms with the consequences of her poor choices and in the process, learn what she truly believes about faith, family, fantasy, and forgiveness. Will she make the right decisions in time to avoid the pitfalls that come from a community questioning her sanity? This is a coming of age tale that uncovers the heart of a poor southern town during the 1920s. And standing at the center of it all is the figure of a distinguished gentleman chiseled from cold granite, who most will agree, never says anything at all.
