America in the 1950s evokes images of innocence, peace, and prosperity—house after suburban house with two parents and 3.5 kids. Just under the surface, though, was unease and even paranoia about nuclear war, espionage, and polio. The ‘50s, with the advent of interstate highways, television, fast food, and motels, and the stirring of the civil rights movement, were turbulent in their own way. Time magazine called the period “our weirdest decade.” Struggling to come of age in the middle of it all is Lass Chambers, whose quiet life in small-town Kentucky is changed forever by the arrival of her uncle’s Scottish bride. Lass will learn too soon about the power of careless words and the awful, wonderful bonds of love and blood.
