Overview
Judd Fenton is a husband, father, truck driver, and philanderer. He's done a few things he wouldn't want his family to find out about. Jim-Bo Fenton, his teen-aged son, has one goal for the summer: to get the girl he has a crush on. Fourteen-year-old Jessie, who's longing to find the mother who disappeared when she was a little girl, finds more than she bargained for up in the mountains beyond the farm. Winnie Fenton, Judd's wife, and stepmother to Jim-Bo and Jessie, makes discoveries of her own, ones that will change her life in more ways than one. Farther up the mountain, widower Martin Dodd spends a lot of his evenings on his front porch, looking down on the Fenton home. He often hears the Fenton family fighting. He worries about Winnie Fenton and comes to realize he cares about her more than he should. He doesn't think Jim-Bo is a good influence on Skee, Martin's only child. With secrets unraveling and discoveries disclosed, all of their lives will be changed, but not necessarily for the better.
