Into this community comes beautiful thirty-four-year-old Vivien Lang, with whom the teenager Billy Swan falls in love, to the scandal of some of the town. To it also comes Senator Frank Halloran to inform the community that a highway is being built through to bring the town to life. All but one of the forty-nine residents are outraged. inventory #4362 Slight Wear to Top Edge Of Boards, Otherwise Very Good in Dustjacket. Seller Inventory # z4362
