Big Stone Gap is a sleepy village where kids get married and start families at eighteen, and stay for ever. So thirty-five-year old Ave Maria Mulligan is something of an oddity. A self-proclaimed spinster, as the local pharmacist she's been keeping the townsfolk's secrets for years.  
  
Now Ave Maria is about to discover a scandal in her own family's past that will blow the lid right off her quiet, uneventful life.  
  
Soon she's juggling two unexpected marriage proposals and conducting a no-holds-barred family feud. The thought of spending the rest of her life in Big Stone Gap is suddenly overwhelming . . .  
  
**The ultimate Small Town American novel from the bestselling author of _The Shoemaker's Wife_, a Richard and Judy Book Club pick.**
