In the tiny town of Crowder's Pointe, North Carolina, eighty-six-year-old Hattie Rollins is not surprised when a young woman staggers into the empty house next door at four o'clock in the morning. Undoubtedly, she is the niece of Hattie's good friend and neighbor, Polly, who recently passed away. She has inherited Polly's house. Her name is Corny Blessing. Years ago her father confessed to murder and was executed. Polly, however, never believed he killed anyone. She left behind pieces of information that might lead to evidence of his innocence and clear his name. Hattie promised Polly she would do her best to meet Corny and encourage her to pursue the truth about her father. Hattie keeps her promise, but things get complicated when Corny chooses to dig her heels into a lie rather than embrace the truth.
