"Tiny Hardcastle is supporting her husband’s 1966 bid for Congress when a series of unexpected events make her question everything — especially the secret fling she had, just before her wedding, with her husband’s cousin Caspian. Caspian returns from Vietnam a wounded hero, and their attraction flames back to life just as suggestive photos surface, Tiny’s husband becomes furtive, his family turns intimidating and her capricious sister arrives in trouble: lots of “tiny little things” that add up to concern, if not danger. An elegant and stylish story that pays homage to a lost era while exploring timeless themes of love, romance and finding yourself."
