Paired with sixty-six-year-old Margaret Hollings for a college sociology project, Mallory discovers she has much to learn about honesty, sensitivity, and older generations when her actions nearly prompt the woman to drop the class. Confronting the reality that this widowed senior citizen faces unique challenges as a first-time college student, Alex finds himself increasingly preoccupied with the details of his parents’ last wills and testaments.
