About the Author
For Campbell, who was a newborn when I wrote my debut and who is now eighteen and grown. What a joy it has been to watch you fly.
We’re running with the shadows of the night,
So baby, take my hand, it’ll be all right.
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight,
They’ll come true in the end.
—Pat Benatar, “Shadows of the Night”
PROLOGUE
The Night Before
Frankie Harriman took a long last look in the mirror on the back of the bathroom door of her decently appointed hotel room. The lighting was, as expected, quite grim, but even without the shadowing and the unflattering overtone of yellow, she startled herself. She fidgeted with the hem of her oversize wool sweater, tried tucking it into the waist of her Levi’s, then decided that made her look like she was trying too hard, so untucked it, but she still wasn’t happy. She turned to the side and gave herself a final once-over. It would have to do. The rehearsal dinner invite had called for College Chic! and this was all she had: her old J.Crew fisherman sweater that she’d dug out of a box in the back of her closet in her Los Feliz apartment and her vintage Levi’s, which she now bought at a used-clothing store on Fairfax, but she may just as well have been wearing the ones from 1989, the year they graduated. The last time she’d set foot on campus at Middleton University.
