World War II was over, and it was a time when Southern California
enjoyed prosperity. Lynn Horvath was ten-years-old. But in spite of
movies, parties, and good friends, she must confront the brutal
death of a woman she and her friends had loved. The novel, Acts of
Kindness, Acts of Contrition, begins with the murder of Jeanne
French in 1947 and describes the long-lasting effects of that
murder on ten-year-old Lynn Horvath as she becomes an adult. As
Lynn and her friends become women, the novel reveals the quiet
heroism in ordinary lives and explores the radical changes that
took place in American society between the 1940s and the present
time.
