This is the captivating story of four generations. Moss, living in the shadow of a father whose obsession with power overshadows the needs of his only son; Jessica, doomed mother who gave up everything to become a perfect Coleman wife; Moss and Billie's children desperately trying to live up to insurmountable expectations and the grandchildren, heirs to a tarnished empire who just might fulfill their dreams. Most of all this is the triumphant story of Billie Ames Coleman, a woman of courage and strength who holds them all together-- in a tale as magnificent as the land that inspired it.
