A young lady, Willie Upton, returns to her hometown of Templeton, fearing that she is pregnant after a disastrous affair with her PhD advisor. She stays the summer in Templeton and embarks on a journey of finding out who her own biological father is.This book is part mystery, part historical fiction, and part just plain old fiction. Overall, I found it quite solid, engaging, and well-written. However, the whole premise of the character's research into who her father is seemed a bit weak. Her mom knows who the father is, but wants her daughter to find out for herself. I don't really understand why the mom didn't just tell her.
