Mrs. Devina Blunt has lost her beloved husband the Colonel and, with him, her will to live. But when Corrigan rolls up her gravel walk in his wheelchair, Mrs. Blunt's grey, routine existence begins to change in ways that neither she nor anyone who knew her could have imagined. She remodels her perfect house, starts a small-scale farming operation, goes into the antiques business (for charity, of course), learns to drive, and starts drinking champagne with lunch. Mrs. Blunt's daughter Nadine isn't sure what to make of her mother's new life. And when Corrigan has a similar effect on Nadine's friend Sabrina, her suspicions only increase. Is Nadine jealous? Paranoid? Or is Corrigan really as questionable as she suspects?
