Although this is a work of fiction, all of the political and financial events are historical facts. The cause and effect connections between them, “hidden in plain view,” were

not commonly understood at the time. The only thing fictional is the personal world of the young female journalist threading her way through the events, and augmented by

her private study of history, finally connecting the dots in a way that only happened in real life decades later.

Many of the classmates are loosely based on preppie type girls that the author knew in the Wellesley area during the 1960s.

At the end are two WLO essays which explain what we can do to rid ourselves of the ongoing problems outlined in this volume:
