For some, it is a safe haven for lost souls; this becomes the reason why Emmy Hamilton’s mother emboldens Emily to purchase a local book store called Folly’s finds in the hope that it might divert Emily’s mind from the grief of losing her husband.

At first, Emmy is resistant; she also finds that a lot has changed in the place where she used to live.

Nevertheless the more she learns about the letters, the more she gets to understand Lulu. As facts of a probable killing and a mysterious vanishing during the second World War are exposed, Emmy and Lulu find out that events that took place sixty years apart that were out of their control have inevitably brought them together on Folly Beach. They soon discover that it is at Folly Beach that their war-scarred hearts may find healing and the hope for a second chance.
