In 1967, as the continuing battle over civil rights reverberates around the nation, a young girl is locked in her own battle with her depressed alcoholic mother, who is fast losing the will to live. During the sweltering days of that long ago summer, her mother’s condition escalates and Sally turns to God and the comforting arms of her elderly Negro nanny to cope. This a poignant, heartwarming, sometimes heart wrenching tale of an adolescent coming to terms and having the courage to face a dire situation that will leave her with a stronger faith and an inter peace she never would have thought possible.
