Can Jackie manage unbidden events without falling into old patterns?Intriguing words and veiled references to the plum are folded into this engaging story of a family, a neighborhood, and a church as Jackie and her mother, Grace, consider what's past and what's coming, face disappointment, and risk seeking joy in the day.
