Every time has its place. Every place has its time. On a raccoon hunt in 1902 with his older brothers, young Benjamin Collins is intrigued to discover two tomb covers marking their ancestors' graves but without headstones. Since nobody will explain why, Benjamin and three close friends form a secret club to solve the mystery. In this pursuit, you will meet interesting characters like Old Jim, the former slave of those buried there and full of enigmatic wisdom. You will encounter the old timer known to locals as "the last Confederate Veteran" with clues from a Civil War battle aiding in the search. Tragedies in the loss of Benjamin's family members and his own romantic dreams for the future seem to be sowing seeds of destruction in his character. Will the solution to the mystery bring back a life that seems to have been lost?
