Things we nearly knew
Powell, Jim, 1949-2018
Large Print
There's a bar at the crossroads on the way out of town. Or the way in, depending on whether you're coming or going. Marcie and her husband have run it for years. After thirty years of marriage, there aren't many secrets left. Couples often tell themselves that, although it's not always true. Arlene appeared in the bar one day not long before Franky Albertino came back, thinking she'd find someone she'd once known, looking for a man named Jack. Franky was hoping that people might have forgotten the mess he left the first time around. Both of them were wrong. Women were always Franky's problem. Women and money. What Arlene's problem is isn't clear. It's obvious she has a history, but who doesn't? As Arlene gets closer to finding Jack the bar becomes the scene of a great unravelling; secrets buried a lifetime ago are dragged into the light.
