Description: When Jiminy retreats to her grandmother Willa's farm in rural Mississippi, she is shocked to discover there was once another Jiminy-- the daughter of her grandmother's longtime housekeeper, Lyn-- who was murdered along with Lyn's husband four decades earlier, in a civil rights era hate crime. With the help of Lyn's nephew, Bo, Jiminy sets out to solve the long-ago murder, to the dismay of those who would prefer to let sleeping dogs lie.
