In the late 1950s, the summer before Jo enters sixth grade, her father, a preacher, moves the family to his conservative hometown of Jericho, South Carolina. While on her own in the woods one afternoon, Jo meets Lucas, the son of the black woman who cooks and cleans for her parents. The two are soon spending time together almost every day. Jo senses she should keep their friendship a secret, but she isn’t exactly sure why.
