TV director Danny Pryor never forgot his first love. And when fate brings them back together in the summer of ’76, the fireworks return — all the heat, all the thrill, all the passion.

She’s got plans of her own.

And when Liona vanishes with Pryor’s two-year-old daughter during the country’s Bicentennial celebration, ex-cop turned private eye Frank Leland finds himself pulled into the frantic search for the missing child — and the most personal case of his career.

Frank couldn’t save his own marriage. But he may be Pryor’s last chance to save his.
