Old Mrs. Lonely Knows is the story of Kathleen Longley, a college professor who quits her job at a small college in Bridgetown, Pennsylvania, to escape the pressure created by a difficult department head, and to spend more time with her husband. Unfortunately, after a short peaceful time together, her husband dies suddenly in his sleep of a heart attack. What follows for Mrs. Longley is a dark period of depression and anxiety in which she turns to alcohol to help her through the pain and desperation. The deepening dependence on alcohol eventually leads to the brink of suicide. Awakening in the dark during a severe winter blizzard, Mrs. Longley cries out to the universe for help, knowing she has reached the end of her rope. During the long fight that follows, she seeks medical and emotional help, settles old scores with hateful and difficult neighbors, and deals with the anger and grief at losing her husband. As she heals, she opens herself to the idea of finding love again, adopts an abused dog, and attempts to rescue a young boy from a dark and mysterious situation that puts her own life in danger. What does Old Mrs. Lonely Know? When the answer comes unexpectedly, it is quite surprising, yet life enhancing.
