Against her better judgement she follows her intuition and it takes her beyond her familiar town where she had lived all of her life, way down to the deep south where further events begin to cause her to question her very self and the belief in the things that have always kept her grounded and able to survive on her own.

Helped by a sure of himself local; who is trying to persuade her to allow their friendship to develop into something more, she finds a small comfort in knowing she has someone to try to make sense of the strange series of events with in this coming of age story about one young woman who is connected to a place more than she knows.
