Author Description

After more than thirty years Gia Scarpino, a successful West Coast lawyer, must go back to the small Pennsylvania coal town of her youth to care for her dying Uncle Tony, the beloved godfather who raised her. There, she will reunite with the trio of once-inseparable friends she left behind. But as the excitement of their reunion begins to fade, Gia sees that none of them -- including herself -- are what they seem. Beneath the surface lie the resentment, anger, and denial that have haunted them all. To unite once more, they must face the pain of the past and rediscover the bonds of love that once connected them -- a tie Gia desperately needs to help her say good-bye one last time.
