In 1967, in Greensboro, Maryland, Natalie Winslow discovers a diary written by her great-great-grandmother. At first, it just seems like an interesting distraction from the struggles of her life. Although the world is changing in many ways, in a small town on the Eastern Shore, change comes slowly. The idea of a relationship between a white woman and black man is not acceptable; marriage between the races has only just been legalized.
