Publisher's Synopsis
A young family relocates to a bucolic small town in search of an idyllic future. The fictional Pleasant Prairie instead is a harbor for all too common human faults- greed, lust for power, inequality, discrimination- underneath the veneer of the Hopewell College community, we find characters that exhibit both good, bad, and indifferent attitudes. The story cleverly weaves historical events from the Vietnam War, through the first Gulf War, with issues of morality that are ever contemporaneous.
