Fiction | Historical
Irish immigrant Ellie Hogan has finally achieved the
American Dream. But her comfortable bohemian life on Fire
Island, New York, is shattered when her eldest adopted
son, Leo, runs away, lured by the promise of fortune and
fame in Hollywood. Determined to keep her family intact,
Ellie follows him west, uprooting her youngest son and
long-time friend Bridie. In Los Angeles, Ellie creates a
fashionable new home among the city's celebrities,
artists, and movie moguls. She is also drawn into intense
new friendships, including talented film composer Stan, a
man far different from any she has ever met, and Suri, a
beautiful Japanese woman and kindred spirit, who opens
Ellie's eyes to the injustices of her country. While Leo
is dazzled by Hollywood's glitz, Ellie quickly sees that
the golden glamour masks a world of vanity and greed.
Though she tries to navigate the family around the dangers
of their new home, she will not be able to protect them
from an even more terrifying threat: war.
