In racially tense 1970 Macon, Georgia a young, naive and somewhat cynical Frank Hayes arrives at his office in City Hall to find Mr. John Glover, an eighty-nine year old illiterate black man who asks for Frank's help in stopping a city condemnation order against the old gentleman's home. Frank's efforts soon put him in the arms of Shirley Willingham, wife of one of Macon's wealthiest real estate developers. But it is Johnny Mae Glover, the green eyed granddaughter of John Glover, who steals Frank's heart. Frank is taken under the wing of a grizzled fifty-five year old ex-convict named Tiny Glover who confided to Frank that he was the husband and convicted killer of Johnny Mae's mother. Tiny believes Frank is an angel sent to put his and Johnny Mae's worlds right again. But before that can happen, Frank, Tiny, and Johnny Mae are arrested and jailed for the murder of millionaire Stafford Willingham. Frank must quickly unravel a plot of greed and corruption before he and his few brave companions become just the latest items in the obituaries.
