The meek, Ruthie Belle dreams of one day being free from her husband’s constant mental and physical torment, until one day she finds the courage to escape from his bondage. Even though the plan goes without a hitch, Ruthie spends the rest of her life riddle in guilt and shame. Later at the ripe age of 103, Ruthie passes away to a place where forgiveness and redemption are a part of everyday journeys. During her pilgrimage, she meets people from her past and makes new and important friends to help to her final destination – the Promised Land. Yet the further into her journey, the darker it gets. Ruthie discovers things aren’t the way it seems when her shame comes back for his revenge – her husband. Will new revelations keep her from her pursuit to redemption? Or will the haunting of her past stop her cold in her tracks?
