Then Sings My Soul is a gritty, humorous, and ultimately loving story of a family shaken to the core by the death of their father. Cora and her children continue to struggle seven years after their father was killed during the D-Day invasion. Cora works two jobs in the oil town of Tulsa, Oklahoma. She's a waitress at the refinery diner and on her off days is employed as a domestic. Her eldest, Josh, works for the railroad by day and dreams of a baseball career at night.
