Cal's wife, Becky, has a spiritual gift: She is a seer who can conjure the dead, helping families connect with those they've lost. Margaret's husband, Felix, is serving on a Navy cargo ship, out of harm's way--until a telegram suggests that the unthinkable might have happened. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLater, as the country reconstructs in the postwar boom, a secret grows in Bonhomie--but nothing stays buried forever in a small town.
