"Manhattan, Thanksgiving eve, 1945. The war was over and Eric Smythe's party was in full swing. All his clever Greenwich Village friends were there. So too was his sister, Sara, an independent, canny young woman, starting to make her way in the big city. An then in walked a gatecrasher, Jack Malone, a U.S. Army journalist just back from a defeated Germany, a man whose world-view did not tally with that of Eric and his friends. This chance meeting between Sara and Jack would have profound consequences."--Back cover.
