A big city singer going through a rough patch in her life washes up at a crumbling manor with her fragile young daughter and staid governess in tow. Soon they're the talk of the small bayou town, but not the only talk - the local African American community is concerned for one of their own, the latest victim in a long line of disappearances. In satisfying their curiosity about these mysteries - the newcomers, and maybe even a murder - best friends Otis and Red embark on a summer of revelations that will forever change their lives.
