Produktbeschreibung
Early on, she asked her parents why they liked drinking, and their only response was, "Why don't you try some if you're so damned curious!" So, she did. Welcome to MeadowBrook, a seemingly idyllic small town in Western Canada where life is as picture-perfect as a 1950s suburban dream- until you scratch the surface. Beneath the polished veneer of gossip, high school sweethearts, and small-town traditions, a darker reality simmers. The Class of '56 is caught in a whirlwind of secret addictions, forbidden desires, and the pressure to fit the perfect mould. But what happens when the high school stars become the very parents struggling to maintain the illusion of the ideal family? As they navigate the delicate balance of small-town expectations, these young adults face life-altering decisions that could unravel everything. Set against the nostalgic backdrop of diners, hot rods, and sock hops, Class of '56 is a prequel to Karen Harmon's award-winning Class of '78, where the secrets behind MeadowBrook's white picket fences begin to crack, revealing a town where no one is truly innocent. "To Marty and Cassandra, the couple turning heads and raising eyebrows! Cheers to love, lust, and a lifetime of keeping the neighbours guessing! Let the scandalous adventure begin!" -Eunice Taylor
