From the enchanting and humorous mind of author Jen Telger comes the charmingly nostalgic and quirky town of Pullman Station. Join Annabelle Walker and her neighborhood friends as they navigate the perils of her unfortunate house placement between the two nastiest old bats in town. Welcome to Pullman Station! Spending her golden years alone, lonely, and bitter hadn't been Cilla Prescott's plan. Though life had dealt her lemons as a young girl, she'd swapped them for sweet oranges and built a life she loved with her husband, Marlon, their children, and their best friends, Jack and Nattie Dennings. That is, until seven years ago when Marlon and Jack passed in quick succession, and the two women descended into a bitter feud. Everyone in the town of Pullman Station had expected the two women to become closer than ever when their husbands passed, but with their anger burning hot and no end in sight, they instead earned a reputation as the two nastiest old bats in town, sending bystanders running and neighbors ducking for cover. Eleven-year-old Annabelle Walker and her family live in the house between the seventy-something former best friends. While Annabelle's mother stresses the importance of one's Christian duty via kindness to all, maintaining peace as arrows fly overhead becomes increasingly difficult. As for Annabelle and her neighborhood friends, they avoid both women, Cilla's dog, and Nattie's starter pistol at all costs. As the summer of 1985 heats up, secrets are discovered, and a tragic accident shakes the neighborhood to its core. With few others left to care, will Cilla and Nattie be able to reconcile their differences to forgive and find healing before time runs out, or will they drive the entire neighborhood crazy to the bitter end?
