Description

Four young women are brutally attacked in a convent near an all-black town in America in the mid-1970s. The inevitability of this attack, and the attempts to avert it, lie at the heart of this novel. A novel of mysterious motives, it reveals the interior lives of the citizens of the town with astonishing clarity.
