attempt to draw inspiration. Lost beneath the floorboards of Green
Gables, secrets are discovered that illuminate the troubled childhood
and the heartbreaking sorrow of Anne's early years.
Remembering her youth, she recalls events that bring her face-to-face
with her demons. Although she had faced much cruelty and despair, she
managed to find the most unlikely friends along the way including an
institutionalized old man, a powerful businesswoman, a hopeless widow,
and a man seeking to become a father to her.
