The Best Small Town

Odyssey has just been nominated for Best Small Town in America - and suddenly the whole town is scrambling to look its best. A secret inspector, a century-old time capsule, a radio drama about the town's founders... everyone has a plan to prove that Odyssey deserves the title. But can a town really put its heart on display? As Whit, Connie, Eugene and the others dig into Odyssey's past, they turn up more than they expected - buried secrets, old friends, and even a threat to Whit's End itself. Before the contest is over, everyone must decide what makes a town truly great: how it looks to strangers, or how it treats its own. It's a season of memory, honesty and sacrifice. When the judges finally make their choice, will Odyssey still be... the best small town?
