While her life is busy and fulfilling, she is desperately lonely, and has been, ever since the loss of her beloved husband, James. After the usually proper Sara makes two very poor choices with two very inappropriate men, her life spins out of control. Soon Sara is telling so many lies she can't keep them straight. With no one to talk to, she confides in the Grandfather clock in the living room. Little does Sara know, however, "Granddad" has secrets of his own.
