One Summer in Savannah begins eight years after Sara Lancaster left her home in Savannah, Georgia. Eight years since her daughter, Alana, came into this world, following a terrifying sexual assault that left deep emotional wounds, Sara would do anything to forget, but when Sara's father falls ill, she's forced to return home and face the ghosts of her past.
