Publisher's Synopsis
There's a bar at the crossroads on the way out of town. Or the way in, depending on whether you're coming or going. Marcie and her husband have run it for years. After three decades of marriage, there aren't many secrets left between them. Couples often say that, don't they? But it's not always true... Arlene appears in the bar one day, not long before Franky Albertino comes back into town, hoping that she'd find a man called Jack. Franky's problem had always been women. Women and money. What Arlene's problem is isn't clear. It's obvious she has a history. But who doesn't? As Arlene gets closer to finding Jack - her father? Her lover? - the bar becomes the scene of a great unravelling, and secrets buried a lifetime ago are dragged into the light...
