The year is 1969. Dick Nixon was just sworn in as the thirty-seventh President of the United States. Neil Armstrong just took one small step for man and one giant leap for mankind. And notable Palm Springs socialite Maxine Simmons just found out that her husband is leaving her for his twenty-two-year-old secretary. After a public meltdown at Thanksgiving, Maxine finds herself not only divorced but exiled to Scottsdale, Arizona. However, these desert boondocks will not be her end--only her Elba. The former beauty queen sets her eyes on a new crown: that of the Mrs. American Pie pageant, awarded to the nation's best wife and mother. Maxine only has one problem: to win the crown she'll need to find--or build--a family of her own."--provided by publisher.

In North Carolina, during World War II, two girls--Lucy Brown and Allie Bert Tucker--decide to solve crimes just like Nancy Drew. Their chance comes when a man goes missing from town. Before they can solve the case, a Nazi prisoner-of-war camp opens, and more men go missing. Together the girls embark on a journey to discover if we ever really know who the enemy is.
"Blythe Connor is determined that she will be the warm, comforting mother to her new baby, Violet, that she herself never had. But in the exhaustion of early motherhood, Blythe becomes convinced that something is wrong with her daughter. Or is it all in Blythe's head? The more her husband, Fox, dismisses her fears, the more Blythe begins to question her own sanity. Then their son, Sam, is born--and with him Blythe has the blissful connection she'd always imagined with her child. But when their lives are changed in an instant, the devastating fallout forces Blythe to face the truth." -- Page [4] of cover
