Thirteen year old Missy Dawson loves mysteries, but even her favorite heroine, Nancy Drew, would be stumped over some of the doozers that surround her small town of Windy Plains, Saskatchewan this late summer of 1977.
Questions like: Who is the shooter responsible for vandalizing property around town and illegally gunning down a deer in a pasture owned by Missy’s dad? Why are the Dawson’s new neighbors so standoffish and reluctant to involve themselves in community activities? Why does the best looking girl in school hate the ground Missy walks on? And, most baffling of all--what secret from her past does Missy’s beloved Gran hold on to so fiercely, and why?
Join Missy on this year-long journey of discovering the cold realities of her world, testing both her sense of security in the community she loves, and the God in whom she trusts.
