Ella Polansky doesn't for a moment believe that a tap shoe is what killed her best friend Sammie's one-time (literally one-time) lover. Unfortunately, much of America does. And the prime suspect is Sammie.

Family. Small town connections. Stories. Ella taps into them all to save her best friend, learning along the way that life and love are never perfect-but maybe that's okay.
