Illusions I Recall:: Elegy For A Flower Child

Female friendship, family, failed ideals, and forgiveness--each plays a crucial role in what goes right, and wrong, for three women across half a century. Best friends since college in the nineteen-sixties, Suzanne and Nora celebrate the advent of 1997 in Nora's home, while the rest of her family is away. Suzanne awakens in the foggy pre-dawn of her last morning there, to learn Nora has been brutally killed. Rachel, Nora's pre-teen daughter, returns that same day to face the tragedy, and soon, her father's arrest for the murder. In alternating chapters, Suzanne relives the early years of her friendship, and Rachel journeys into adulthood, plagued by more loss and betrayal, until one day, a collision of events forces her from her self-.destructive path. The two surviving women reunite. Bonded by their grief, and searching for answers, they discover secrets Nora withheld from even her closest friend. Hailed by author/editor Kate Evans (Call It Wonder, and For the May Queen) as "a beautiful, unique book; an engaging, enjoyable read."
