To put it nicely, many people who met Dana Elliot thought she was a bit of a snob. That might have surprised Dana, not that she would have cared. In her mind, anyone who did not understand the difference between being successful and being a snob weren’t worth worrying about. Those were not the people she wanted to impress. Those people were ordinary; she was not. When she is deserted by her husband and left in debt up to her eyebrows, Dana is forced to move from her luxury high rise in the city to a guest room in the quaint town of Bradbury, Indiana. With backyard barbeques replacing social soirées, Dana begins to discover that "ordinary" lives can be fulfilling and even a touch mysterious. In Bradbury, she is accepted without pretense. She’s even liked by her new neighbors, and she is surprised by how much she likes them. Maybe she had had it wrong all along. Maybe Bradbury is just the place for her. Maybe finally, at age 42, Dana has found a real home… But the world intends to pave its way through Bradbury, led by a fleet of bulldozers and powered by the laws of eminent domain. In its path is Dana Elliot, and she is ready to fight because she can’t take being flattened again.
