Until that September of 1952, Luke Chandler had never kept a secret or told a single lie but in the long hot summer of his 7th year two groups of migrant workers and two very dangerous men came into the Arkansas delta to work the Chandler cotton farm. And suddenly mysteries are flooding Luke's world. A brutal murder leaves the town seething in gossip and suspension. A beautiful young woman ignites forbidden passions. A fatherless baby is born and someone has begun painting the bare clap boards of the Chandler farm house. Slowly bathing the run-down structure in gleaming white. And as young Luke watches the world around him, he unravels secrets that could shatter lives and change his family forever.
