Jim Greyson is the last of a prestigious family line, living in Delphi mansion in rural Georgia near a town named for his family with an old black brother-and-sister couple, the last of the line of caretakers for Delphi. Jim loves the forest, and he knows every inch of his vast landholdings. He also loves reading and updating his family journals, books that go back generations in documenting everything from love to angels to deer hunting. When he falls in love with Atlanta urbanite Mary, his world gets turned upside down, and his simple country life meets cell phones, movies and zoos. Mary’s son, also named Jim, has had a problem with alcohol since the death of his own father. Could a city woman find happiness far away from her urban pleasures? And somewhere in that simple life, could there be hope for her addicted son?
