All Kentucky-born Jane Denton wanted was to have an iced coffee from the comfort of the clubhouse at the Porters Ford Golf Club. Given the state of play, she faced a long wait for her husband's foursome to come within view at the eighteenth green. Her husband, senior pro golfer Charlie Denton, was participating in the club's annual charity golf tournament.
Never a golfer herself, Jane was there only for moral support. Otherwise, she finally had the time to pursue her own interests, retired from teaching English to middle and high-schoolers.
Someone broke into the line of customers, spilling her drink all over her vintage silk suit. At the same time a bizarre equine tragedy was taking place during a Hollywood film company shoot on the banks of the Ohio River nearby.
These seemingly disconnected events would entangle Jane's life with the lives of scores of others, ranging from habitues of the Hollywood film industry to day laborers working in Kentucky horse farms, with a healthy mix of local and state law enforcement thrown in for good measure.
As hidden schemes and plots come to light, Jane wonders who is actually behind them, and who will survive?
