The Message

The Internet can be a dangerous place. Mattie Mitchell and her pal, Clare Tibbits, two spunky mid-lifers, discover a mysterious message on a laptop. In The Message, a slick operator on an online dating site talks lonely widows into parting with their money for noble purposes—his. Mattie boldly makes contact with the predator, but how is she going to get him onto her turf? When he agrees to her terms, she fears she might be in over her head. Ultimately, fate works in her favor and Mattie shows what she's truly made of.

But there are a few surprises along the way: Mattie's perfect plan backfires, and she discovers new friend, Angela, isn't quite the person she appears to be. 

The Message is set against the backdrop of the western North Caroina mountains.
