Teenagers are celebrating the first taste of freedom as they line their pockets with newly printed driver's licenses and long-awaited paychecks. Days off are spent at the town's only lake, nights under the yellow lights of the drive-in restaurant. For Billy Tupper, it's a different story. One mistake too many lands him in front of a judge who sentences him to a summer working for Old Lady Baxter, the victim of his latest carelessness?and rumored child killer of Munroe, Kansas. As Billy sweats his way through endless months of mowing her lawn, weeding her garden, and painting her house, he also searches for the evidence to prove she's guilty, but what he finds will change his life and the lives of all those around him.I Know an Old Lady is a touching coming-of-age story of loss and redemption, of understanding and compassion, and of a family torn apart and slowly put back together.
