A dairy from a lifetime ago . . . A ghost from the past . . . And an infatuation long forgotten . . .
Wedding singer Georgia Ray Miller dreams of becoming a Blues Goddess, but her own doubts keep getting in the way. Besides, she's got enough to keep her occupied, living in a huge former brothel with her hippie grandmother, her surrogate boyfriend and Jack, the Big Easy's most infamous drag queen. Still, Georgia can't help being mesmerised by stories from an old blues pianist. When she discovers a diary from a long-lost aunt, she finds out the blues is truly in her blood.
But before Georgia gathers the courage to sing the Delta blues, she must first figure out the affairs of her heart. Does she remain in the comfortable relationship she's found with Jack? Does she run off with the love of her life, a man from her past with a roguish reputation? Or strike out on her own? She thinks she has it all figured out, but the ghosts of the past have a way of intruding on the present.
