At seventy, Rebekah Lang finally resolves to confront the guilt she has carried for more than six decades. This journey draws her back to the turbulent summers of the mid-1960s, when she was a bright but self-absorbed teenager, caught between the innocence of youth and the harsh realities of a world unraveling. Amid the backdrop of war, racial unrest, and long-buried family secrets, she encountered a series of emotional, physical, and spiritual awakenings that would shape-and scar-her life.

Now, as she sifts through memory and consequence, Rebekah must face the question: can reckoning with the past bring healing in her final years, or will it leave her more unsettled than ever?
