The insightful, troubling tale of the coming of age of a privileged
young Southern woman during the turbulent Civil Rights era.
In Montgomery, Alabama, Martin Luther King Jr. has organized a
bus boycott. In Tuscaloosa, outrage surrounds the entrance of the
state university's first black student. But at little Randolph
University, sweltering in the summer heat, life remains dreamily
the same. At Kappa House, the sorority sisters talk of who has
pinned whom, and whether they can sneak past their housemother so
they can party at an out-of-town bar. Even among this privileged
group, pretty, popular Kappa sister Maggie Deloach is
unquestionably one of the elite...until she commits a single act of
defiance and courage that forever alters the way others think of
her, and how Maggie thinks of herself.
