Publisher's Synopsis
Rainey Royal lives in 1970s Greenwich Village with her father, a jazz musician. His personality and music have combined to win him a cult following and he is surrounded by adoring acolytes. Rainey's mother left long ago and she is trying to avoid her father's creepy best friend, whose actions are becoming more predatory. Despite all this, Rainey is trying hard (in her messed-up way) to build and nurture a substitute family. She's a rebel, an artist, even a criminal, but she's also deeply vulnerable, fighting to figure out how to put some boundaries back in place.
