A man arrives at a Pennsylvania hotel to introduce his estranged father to his newborn daughter and finds him collapsed on the floor of the lobby. A sixty-seven-year-old taxi driver in Kauai receives a phone call from the mainland that jars her back to a traumatic past. These seemingly disconnected lives come together as half-century-old secrets begin to surface. It is in this moment that Bill Clegg reminds us how choices--to connect, to betray, to protect--become our legacy. \"Written in lyrical, beautiful prose that makes even waking up seem like a poetic event\" (Good Morning America), this novel is a feat of storytelling, capturing sixty years within the framework of one fateful day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill Clegg is a literary agent in New York and the author of the bestselling memoirs \u003ci\u003ePortrait of an Addict as a Young Man\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eNinety Days\u003c\/i\u003e.
