Miss Julia Speaks Her Mind

Miss Julia Springer, a proper Southern woman of a certain age, has had enough -- and she's going to tell you about it. Quietly coping with her husband's recent death and the burden of dealing with his sizable estate, she is visited by one Hazel Marie Puckett along with Wesley Lloyd Springer's bastard son. Hazel informs her that, since the man left her penniless, she's leaving little Lloyd in Miss Julia's care. Suddenly, this pillar of her small Southern community finds herself at the center of an unseemly scandal -- and the guardian of a wan nine-year-old whose mere presence turns her life upside down.Ann B.
