"It was August. For years it was August . . . . There was heat
like wet gauze and a high, white sky and music coming from
everywhere at once."
In the long, hot Illinois summer of 1973, insecure, motherless
Jamie falls under the dangerous spell of her older, more worldly
cousin Fawn, who's come to stay with Jamie and her uncle as penance
for committing an "unmentionable act." It is a time of awakenings
and corruptions, of tragedy and loss, as Jamie slowly discovers the
extent to which Fawn will use anything and anyone to further her
own ends--and recognizes, perhaps too late, her own complicity in
the disaster that takes shape around them.
