A professor of history at UCLA, Sally has just been offered the hugely endowed and deliciously secretive Dunwoodie Distinguished Chair in American Women s History at the University of Wyoming. Job description: Move into the late Meg Dunwoodie s posh residence in Laramie (the only one of its kind) and, with sole proprietors of her papers, construct the definitive Meg Dunwoodie biography--without telling anyone anything about it.In this town, rumors abound and secrets are practically nonexistent.Of course, everyone knows that Sally has been hired to poke through old Meg s papers, and a lot of people think that somewhere among them sits a treasure map that could lead to a fortune in gold Krugerrands. Oneway or another, most of Laramie is determined to getinto Meg Dunwoodie s house.There are break-ins, a curious sheriff, gossipy friends, and avaricious faculty at the university. And, if that isn t enough to distract Sally from her research, sexy Hawk Green has shown up to rekindle a romance Sally thought was gone forever.But all this goes deeper and the stakes are higher thanSally could have imagined. As she delves intoMeg s romantic and heartbreaking past as a foreigncorrespondent in Paris during World War II, the forces of good and evil are aligning in Laramie, and Sally realizes that, truly, those who don t learn from their pasts are doomed to repeat it.In the tradition, of Susan Isaacs and Fannie Flagg, Virginia Swift has written a story that breaks the mold, with a cast of finely drawn characters and a heroine whose wit and intelligence are matched only by herdetermination.
