Synopsis

The residents of Riggs Park nicknamed her Penny, since her hair was the red of a bright copper coin…We’d all grown up in the flourishing Washington, D.C., suburb -- Marilyn, me, Steve, Penny and Wish… the boy I’d loved. It was during the baby-boom years, when the future was luminous. But things don’t always turn out as expected. Riggs Park had secrets, and Penny was one of them.Sometimes there’s a chance to go back and right a wrong. Marilyn is convinced Penny had had a baby, and that the child belonged to her family. My lifelong friend can’t follow up -- she’s fighting cancer. Only I can search for answers. But would finding truth break my heart…or set us all free?
