霍布斯夫人的丈夫死后,她却发现丈夫的遗产只能是幻想。她唯一获得的财产就是南方家中一所破旧的房子。慢慢的,霍布斯夫人发现自己与叛逆少年贾斯汀及其他孩子逐渐的联系在了一起……Due to finances that weren't as solid as she thought, the sudden death of Ester Hobbes' affluent husband leaves her with nothing but a boarding house in Georgia as her only untouched asset. The stipulation is that she must immediately move in and establish residency. This she does with the thought of moving in, systematically moving its residents out and selling, but it turns out that the residents are a struggling Christian couple fostering five orphaned and/or abandoned kids - all of whom don't want Ester there, and leaving Ester wondering what to do next.
