About the title
Grace, the daughter of a famous judge, lived a carefree life and never knew financial troubles. But after her father's death and her divorce, she returns to her hometown and learns that the family estate is mortgaged and facing foreclosure, and the once-huge bank accounts have been emptied. Determined to reclaim the house that had belonged to her family for generations, Grace intends to get a job, but in the 1960s women's rights didn't yet exist, and her body turns out to matter more than her skills. And Grace does not like that one bit.
