    "description": "Decades of Loss, an Unsolved Mystery, <br> and a Rift Spanning Three Generations<br><br>Hazel DeFord is a woman haunted by her past. While berry picking in a blackberry thicket in 1943, ten-year old Hazel momentarily turns her back on her three-year old sister Maggie and the young girl disappears.<br><br> Almost seventy years later, the mystery remains unsolved and the secret guilt Hazel carries has alienated her from her daughter Diane, who can&rsquo;t understand her mother&rsquo;s overprotectiveness and near paranoia. While Diane resents her mother&rsquo;s inexplicable eccentricities, her daughter Meghan&mdash;a cold case agent&mdash;cherishes her grandmother&rsquo;s lavish attention and affection.<br> &#160;<br> When a traffic accident forces Meghan to take a six-week leave-of-absence to recover, all three generations of DeFord women find themselves unexpectedly under the same roof. Meghan knows she will have to act as a mediator between the two headstrong and contentious women. But when they uncover Hazel&rsquo;s painful secret, will Meghan also be able to use her investigative prowess to solve the family mystery and help <i>both</i> women recover all that&rsquo;s been lost?",
