From back cover:

In a narrative that ranges from the 1940's to the 1970. Greeley wolls the story of three friends who spend a memorable and life altering summer at a lake near Chicago. Both Leo Kelly and Patrick "Packy" Keenan are falling in love Jane Devlin during the summer of 1948, but a tragic car accident that kills two of their friends changes everything.

The trio come together again at the lake in 1978, and all the unanswered questions about the accident and their feelings for each other come to the surface. It's a riveting story of love, crime, and scandal laced with the Roman Catholic orientation that is Greeley's forte.
