Snapping his fingers, he often laughed, "I could drop dead, just like that." Now, he was gone. It takes Bill's last gift, a return trip to her southern hometown, to awaken her to not only the possibility he did indeed prepare her for his death but to uncover family secrets which as usual were addressed in that inimitable fashion of the South-the innuendo, the raised eyebrows, the meanness concealed in the sweetness.

Many things are hidden within BEHIND LACE CURTAINS which can possibly contribute to Dorothy's ability to build a new life. Bill's last gift will be honored.
