Publisher's Synopsis
The summer of '76 continues. After suffering a non-life threatening, but nevertheless, traumatic head injury, a period of Candy's memory is missing, the period that includes her relationship with Austin teen, Steven Paul. Steven Paul's devastated; the current love of his life only remembers him as a rebel and menace in the neighborhood. Reluctantly, he leaves Candy in Miami in care of Jane, the sister that Candy's never had, to rest and hopefully recover her memory while Steven Paul departs for Georgia for a planned visit with his dad. The calls to Jane become increasingly disturbing - Candy's acting strange. The final call is even more disturbing - Candy's purchased a pistol and disappeared. The only clue, Jane's learned that Candy's boarded a non-stop flight to Las Vegas - a place that's meant nothing but bad news for Candy. So much for Steven Paul's own rest and recuperation. But finding Candy only proves to be the tip of the deadly iceberg when the local mob crowns a new Vegas Peach.
