Hunter's Cove, Texas has always had a lot to say about Savoy Chandler, as a widow and the woman her mother-in-law spent years deciding wasn't quite enough. What the town doesn't know is that a year after burying her husband, she is still sleeping in his car, still running a gospel radio show she can barely hold herself together for, and still carrying a grief nobody around her knows how to touch. The quiet, dignified version of loss, the one people bring casseroles for, left the building a long time ago. What's left stinks, drinks, and sits outside a pile of rubble that used to mean everything just to feel close to what she lost.
When the life Savoy has been white-knuckling her way through suddenly fills up again with people she didn't ask for and a reckoning she can no longer outrun, she has to decide whether the woman she's been surviving as is the woman she actually wants to be.
