About the Book
Hilary Scott leads an idyllic life teaching at a good small college in Michigan. Her two children are nearly grown and doing well, she and her lawyer husband have satisfying jobs, and they have a close circle of intimate friends—a group of five couples unofficially headed by the president of the college and affectionately referred to among themselves as The Usual Suspects. Then Hilary is made privy to a secret which turns her life upside-down. What does she owe the person who told her the secret? When should private behavior have public consequences? When, and from what, should a faculty member protect her students? These are the questions; how Hilary answers them will have profound effects on many lives.
