Gloria Raccio is New York to the core: brash, bruised, and beautiful.And Roy Dalton fell for her back when she first threw fists in the schoolyard in 1944. Ever since, he has burned a roaring torch for Gloria in the shadows.Then, in late 1959, Gloria moves into his apartment block and their paths cross regular. But with this broad, regular means at intervals of days and weeks.The more Roy learns of Gloria's life, mired in New York's lowlife clubs and bars, the more he becomes mired in his love for this young Apple woman. When events start to spiral faster than a Charybdis-spun whirlpool, they move toward an outcome Roy could only dream about.The trouble with dreams is how you deal with the waking up.
