A graphic novelist, Leia, meets a man at a Comic-Con. After a night of fun and drinking, she becomes pregnant. Not certain whether to contact the father of the baby, she learns her grandmother needs her. Consequently, she returns to Alabama from Atlanta to visit her grandmother who needs help sorting out her estate. Her grandmother, a once dignified and independent woman, has become ill with dementia. She now relies on her close friend, Wattie, to help her with daily tasks. While cleaning out the attic, they uncover a box containing bones. What is the story? Could this be the body of a relative?
Her grandmother’s secret will change the course of Leia’s life and all that she has known about her grandmother. Meanwhile her perfect step-sister’s marriage is falling apart. And Leia needs to tell everyone that her baby will be biracial. How will they react to the news?
Filled with delightful characters, this book is a fun romp for a long weekend or beach read. As a plus, the audiobook is read by the author who is outstanding.
