Who everyone thought was having an affair with the owner of the bar. How can Charlie say no to the owner's widow? And when Charlie accidentally finds the pregnant waitress, things start to take a strange turn. And suddenly, Charlie finds herself thrust into a decades-old mystery that haunts Redemption to this day. A mystery that could very well cost Charlie her life. Meet Charlie.
