At fifteen years old, their path is already set, as Maggie runs away from home, and Janey decides to be a nun. Maggie’s naivety leads her into prostitution, thievery, and struggles with her emotions. Janey’s assignment to a mission brings her temptations, weaknesses, inner conflicts and a heartbreaking decision that follows her through life.
Many years later, their paths cross again, and an uncanny co-incidence and startling revelation leads them into a deep and happy lifetime friendship.

Camille’s teen-age pregnancy becomes a traumatic event whose effects follow her for decades. It adds bitterness to her relationship with her father and casts a cloud over her relationship with the soldier she loves dearly. At the final news of his tragedy in battle, she gets depressed and has a near-fatal accident which, she believes, was thwarted by her deceased mother. This brings her hope. Alone, and through drastically changing times, she succeeds at building a fulfilling life. Then Azheimer’s strikes and she is left with nothing but fleeting memories of her past--until her most precious gift comes to her.

WHO FOUND MOO-MOO? (For children - 8 years and up)
A small dog runs away just a few days after the LaPlumes adopt him. As the family and a few “unconventional” characters join in the search for the dog, personal relationships develop, or are mended. When they finally find the dog, they’re sad to know why he ran away; but they’re very happy, not only because he’s safe and will return to a loving family, but because some of the persons found one another!
