"Even you move away, can't never leave Georgia. Can't untangle them roots." Nearly two decades ago, Susan "Pea" Butler left her home and family for New York. Now, she has been called back with dreadful news: Eve Butler, her sister-in-law and former flame, is dying. Susan Pea returns to Georgia to help set Eve's affairs in order. But, with every turn, festering and rotten secrets of liaisons, assault, and mysterious disappearances are bubbling to the surface.Meanwhile, Eve, unbeknownst to Susan Pea, has asked Letta Davis, the Butler housekeeper, to undertake a dark task... Mourning Eve's impending death, worrying about the safety of her children, and raging at the injustice of her husband's death, Letta must decide if she can, or even wants to, carry out Eve's last request.

Set against the backdrop of Georgia in the summer of 1970, Susan Pea Butler and Letta Davis must navigate the dangers of a scheming and greedy world. They must decide what matters most, what is worth saving. More importantly, do they really want to escape this quagmire?
