"In the small town of Granite Creek, Minnesota, Haze Evans suffers a stroke at the age of 89 and slips into a coma. Haze is a local legend, having written a daily column in the Granite Creek Gazette for fifty years running"-- When Haze Evans first appeared in the small-town newspaper, Granite Creek Gazette, she earned fans by writing a story about her bachelor uncle who brought a Queen of the Rodeo to Thanksgiving dinner. Now, fifty years later, when the beloved columnist suffers a massive stroke and falls into a coma, publisher Susan McGrath fills the void with Haze's past columns and responses from readers. As Haze's story unfolds, Susan and her teenage son Sam-- his summer job is reading the paper archives-- discover secrets that have been locked in the files for decades, along with sad and surprising truths about Haze's past. -- adapted from jacket |
