Unable to divorce his wife, a man resolves to murder her instead. “Marriage at best is but a compromise,” the author notes, “and if two people happen to be united who are of an uncompromising nature, there is trouble.” This trouble takes a surprising turn when the man leads his wife out to an outlook to do the deed. 

Two men from vastly different backgrounds are murdered one after another on the same night, in the same fashion with two bullet wounds: one in the head, another in the heart. The two slayings send their wives on a desperate search for answers - and a desperate attempt to save their families' lives.

Will Mr. McPat go back to his former ways, or win over the heart of this new companion as well?

Nathan, an engineer hiding from his past, and Claire, a housewife, struggle to find their footing in the newly electrified, job-hungry, post-Depression South.

Os contos reunidos neste audiolivro nos levam a participar de uma jornada marcada pela diversidade. Convivem aí o viajante e o artesão. O interesse da narradora se fixa em assuntos e temas bem diferentes, de uma viagem a Cádiz à espera de crianças pela visita do carteiro que traz notícias do pai, este sim viajante. E uso narradora não só por ela ser Ângela, mas porque se escuta aí uma voz bem feminina.

Author of the international best seller I'm with the Band: Confessions of a Groupie, Pamela Des Barres shares with women the art of memoir writing. For the last 14 years, Pamela Des Barres has been teaching an eight-week women's "femoir" writing workshop.
