She not only has her own memory of holding the gun, but her father's account of the event. Now fourteen, she yearns for her mother, and for forgiveness. Living on a peach farm in South Carolina with her father, she has only one friend: Rosaleen, a black servant whose sharp exterior hides a tender heart. South Carolina in the sixties is a place where segregation is still considered a cause worth fighting for. When racial tension explodes one summer afternoon, and Rosaleen is arrested and beaten, Lily is compelled to act.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFugitives from justice and from Lily's harsh and unyielding father, they follow a trail left by the woman who died ten years before.
