An aging couple,Tom and Tinkerbell, who operate a country general store, befriend Josh Adams, a young man struggling to survive in the post-depression, rural South. Josh discovers a mysterious curve-a hairpin turn in a road that seems to lead to nowhere in the middle of the woods. Despite being warned that the "curve" is cursed and inhabited by a ghost, Josh becomes enchanted by the curve and decides to build his home there. Josh endures hunger, a life-threatening blizzard, dangerous moonshiners, and a stint in the Navy during World War II, before finally settling down and getting married. But, it is left to his daughter,Molly Adams, to eventually solve the mystery of The Curve.
