Amelia kept a secret for 70 years. A secret she promised two men to tell. She refused in the end after she witnessed the murder of her beloved Grandfather. She was very angry and felt she need not share a secret of a man she now hated. Because of this, one family in her historical town suffered degradation, poverty and scorn each generation instead of the possibly more honorable role they could have held as fine town citizens of stature.
Suddenly, at 80 years of age, she realizes some secrets shouldn't be kept as punishment. She decides to fix things.
While attempting to atone for her anger and secrecy, all the towns secrets and hidden longings come out as she meddles greatly in everyone else's lives.
Many great characters and little stories are intertwined with the main story. This is a nice big book filled with hearty reading. It's filled with fantastic Southern descriptions throughout that bring back strong memories of the small little towns I grew up in.
Good reading!
