description: In 1969, Holly O'Neal made a pact with her best friend, Jess Martin, never to reveal the story behind the conception of her illegitimate child. Thirty years later, Holly is dead, Jess is in the midst of a personal crisis and Zoe Ryerson is desperate to know the truth about the parents who abandoned her. When she lands on Jess's doorstep looking for answers, their worlds collide and two captivating stories unfold. One story follows two college friends on their journey from innocence to awareness, across the social and political minefield of the 60s and 70s. Memories and journal entries reveal the shadow side of a generation mired in the sexual revolution, the Viet Nam War and the early Women's Movement. A parallel story depicts the struggle between Jess and Zoe as they uncover secrets, learn lessons about self-worth and discover the true meaning of friendship. Darkly comic, erotic, rich with detail and emotion, this unique work of fiction is completely enthralling and ultimately, unforgettable.
