When Haze Evans first appeared in the small-town newspaper, Granite Creek Gazette, she earned fans by writing a story about her bachelor uncle who brought a Queen of the Rodeo to Thanksgiving dinner. Now, fifty years later, when the beloved columnist suffers a massive stroke and falls into a coma, publisher Susan McGrath fills the void with Haze's past columns and responses from readers. As Haze's story unfolds, Susan and her teenage son Sam-- his summer job is reading the paper archives-- discover secrets that have been locked in the files for decades, along with sad and surprising truths about Haze's past. -- adapted from jacket |
