内容简介
Middling historian Lucas Page visits St. Louis to give a
sparsely attended reading—nothing out of the ordinary. Except among
the yawning attendees is someone he did not expect: Lola Faye
Gilroy, the “other woman” he has long blamed for his father’s
murder decades earlier.
sparsely attended reading—nothing out of the ordinary. Except among
the yawning attendees is someone he did not expect: Lola Faye
Gilroy, the “other woman” he has long blamed for his father’s
murder decades earlier.
Reluctantly, Luke joins Lola Faye for a drink. As one drink
turns into several, these two battered souls relive, from their
different perspectives, the most searing experience of their lives.
Slowly but surely, the hotel bar dissolves around them and they are
transported back to the tiny southern town where this defining
moment—a violent crime of passion—is turned in the light once more
to reveal flaws in the old answers. As it turns out, there is much
Luke doesn’t know. And what he doesn’t know can hurt him. Trapped
in an increasingly intense emotional exchange, and with no place to
go save back into his own dark past, Luke struggles to gain control
of an ever more threatening conversation, to discover why Lola Faye
has come and what she is after—before it is too late.
