Once again the author has written a story that starts in Scotland and ends in San Francisco. Liz married at an early age and had a son named Patrick. She loved to shop, even though her husband had asked her to stop spending so much money. One day her husband makes her promise she won't go out. She breaks her promise and takes her son shopping. They rush to get home before her husband. When her son claims he's hungry she sends him to the corner market and rushes to her apartment to hide her purchases. Her son never returns. She tells one lie after another which slows down the hunt for her son.

The story switches and Liz in in an American prison. She had gotten herself mixed up with drugs, the Black Panthers and several other things she should not have gotten herself mixed up in. This story goes back and forth between the two events.

Unlike the author's other book I reviewed, I had a difficult time getting into this one. I didn't care for the sexual content and just felt it was a lot more disjointed for me as a reader. I will say that there is a lot of historical information about that time period that was very accurate. The author is very good at making you feel like you are where the author is. This just wasn't a book for me. I know there re many out there who would like it so I would recommend you try it out.
