Grainger County, Tennessee, 1951 A farmer suffers a fatal heart attack and collapses in his tomato fields. Weeks later, the unlikely heir to the farm begins to work the land and soon discovers holes being dug throughout the fields. Broken glass and tire tracks surround each excavation as does the mystery of what the culprits are searching for. Concern grows when someone breaks into the house in the middle of the night and the tomato fields are set ablaze. While the heir to the farm believes that the threat is coming from disgruntled relatives who didn’t receive an inheritance, she couldn’t possibly know that the real threat is coming from a small house on the other side of town. What do they want? What are they looking for? Destruction, mystery, and turmoil plague a family in a small town in 1951.
