Inhaltsangabe

Second Generation is the story of two 20-something women who come to New York City from the Midwest. Diana works in a spa where she gives facials to various clients and dreams of moving from Hoboken into Manhattan. She decides to earn some fast cash by becoming a surrogate mother for a childless couple. Years later, Diana sees the wife of the couple on TV and feels curious. When she met them, the wife wasn't an actress... and what happened to the baby? Meanwhile, Meredith works on Wall Street. Despite her success at work, she can't seem to hold onto a boyfriend. At a low point, she meets an older man and goes too far with him. Later, she decides to quickly break it off with him, and meets him for a drink to let him down easy. She wakes the next morning with no idea how she got home... Did he give her a date-rape drug?"Scutti writes compelling prose that engages the reader's interest from the start, and never lets it flag.
