Can a rejected wife conquer self-doubt, trap a criminal,
and win love? A patron saint might help... Thirty-something Joan Nelson has more to contend with
than a biological clock or an identity crisis. Despite
her ardent belief in a conventional marriage, she finds
herself deserted for a younger, slimmer woman. Lacking
any skills or education, she's thrust unprepared into the
nightmare challenge of making a living for the first time
in her sheltered existence. A job as a receptionist in a law firm is the first rung
on the ladder to her independence. Yet the taste of
success sours when Joan considers the emptiness of her
personal life. How can she reconstruct her damaged life
and heal her bruised ego? Ill-equipped for the singles
scene, she embarks on a confusing, sometimes frightening,
new lifestyle. When Joan stumbles on a crime perpetuated by a charming
cad, she must defy her boss, jeopardize her newly won
stability, and reject her friends. Her namesake, Joan of
Arc, provides a model of courage and insight. If she
risks danger and uncertainty, will she discover that
independence and adulthood can be both enjoyable and
fulfilling? Does optimism beat pessimism? Who would have
dreamed her final victory could solve a childhood puzzle
while it brings her true love?
