Book of Days

By Lanford Wilson 

Ruth Hoch's Missouri town features a prominent community theater, an established local church, and an ever-present cheese plant. It's also the scene of a suspicious death. When Ruth is cast as Joan of Arc in their upcoming production, she finds herself blown into a tornado of small town jealousies, greed, and lies. Will she find the truth that she seeks?
