520 $aSamantha Flint, the figure at the book's center, flees from the Midwest to Smith College to shake her past, to invent a future she can live with. There she meets the redoubtable Mimi Mohr, who soon becomes her friend, confidante, and inspiration; together (and apart) they spend the next decade and a half in New York, Washington, and Los Angeles, each new city and job taking them to fresh heights of power and wealth.
520 8 $aYet everything Sam wants seems destined to elude her, even as it comes easily to Mimi; decisions soon slip beyond her control; and alter a series of moral lapses - some desperate, some careless - Samantha Flint finds that her dreams, through neglect, have turned violently against her.
