It's the summer of 1958. Shirley is another year older, but is she another year wiser? She looks forward to spending her second summer in Willowdale and working in her grandmother's cafe. She understands getting older means accepting more responsibility. However, she can't foresee how her life is about to be turned upside down forever. At first, the summer goes as planned. She eases into her old job and knows everything her grandmother expects of her. Then, she meets a new resident who moved to town during the winter. What she learns about the newcomer changes everything for the small town and for Ivey's Cafe. Shirley must help her grandmother fight the threat to the cafe the new arrival poses. Their way of life and the well-being of George the pug are at stake. They struggle to defend everything they hold dear, but their efforts are challenged at every turn. Even with the help of friends, their success is not guaranteed. It is up to Shirley to push herself to the limit of her endurance to try to win the battle. When all seems lost, will Shirley put aside her anger at Jim and accept his help? Her future and that of a stranger will depend upon her decision.
