When he is killed in action in Viet Nam, Dani's world shatters. She launches a one-woman vendetta against the men she seeks out in Rush Street's singles bars. Her goal: Break as many hearts as she can. Sweet Jane. A drunken mother makes childhood ugly, Jane runs away at sixteen, determined to leave her fraught upbringing in the rearview.

When Mama dies, Jane returns for the funeral, leaving her husband in the dark about her history. Seeing her childhood home and significant people from her youth catapults Jane back to the events that made her the woman she is
