Ben Slocum's marriage careens out of control, so he flees New
England, only to have his progress-and nearly his life-ended.
Octogenarian and psychiatrist Will Rivard saves Ben with the stroke
of a T'ai Chi sword. The ensuing friendship brings to light a
stunning secret that has tormented Will for six decades. Will
shares this secret through his adolescent journal, transporting Ben
back in time to the height of the Great Depression.
Ben's glimpse back in time reveals why two lovers cross the
raging floodwaters of Fountain Creek, even as a bridge washes out
beneath their car. Stranded, they huddle on the roof, a spot
scarcely larger than a welcome mat, as rescuers throw ropes and
launch boats into the torrent. Will Rivard joins in the fight to
save them. Yet questions remain: Why did the couple attempt such a
desperate gambit in the first place? Did Will chase them to that
spot?
As the complex strands of past and present converge, romance
blossoms in Ben's life and he learns, of Will's ill-fated love.
"Like a Guilty Thing" presents parallel dramas, each with
questions-and answers-that race toward its gripping end.
