Content descriptions
General Note: | "A novel"--Jacket cover. |
Summary, etc.: | On Thanksgiving Day 1962, the shooting of a young woman sets off a chain of unsettling events in Willow Falls, Minnesota. Matthew Garth first sees Louisa Lindahl in Dr. Dunbar's home office, and at the time her bullet wound makes nearly as strong an impression as her unclothed body. Fueled over the following weeks by his feverish longing for this mysterious woman -- as well as by a deep desire for the comfort and affluence that appears to surround the Dunbars -- Matthew finds himself drawn into a series of confrontations he never expected, the results of which will change his life irrevocably and give lie to his version of the American dream. |
