A novel portraying the year in Canadian society after WW II. It is V.E. Day in Hamilton. The narrator runs into his ice hockey hero before the war and introduces him to Hamilton society with romantic consequences. "It gives the reader insight into the maturing process through the first person narrative of law student Tom Davis as he gropes his way to adulthood during the years immediately following the end of the Second World War. The book also bears witness to the unchanging nature of human frailty and the complexities of love, lust and hate." Brantford Expositor.

"A good read... funny and sad, just like life itself, as it traces the tale of young love...when everything seemed so different, yet things weren't really different".. Stony Creek News.
