"Set in a remote corner of South Africa in the early 1960s, Cracks is a story of young girls caught up in a drama of passion, longing, and identity."--BOOK JACKET.
"Fiamma Coronna, a foreign student out walking the grounds of her boarding school, disappears one day into the heat and dust of the Transvaal. Forty years later, her schoolmates gather at the invitation of the aged headmistress to save the school from a developer's bulldozer. They had been memebers of the school's swim team, each completely devoted to their coach, Miss G., a powerfully attractive, charismatic woman who was their first crush, their "crack." Now middle-aged, each of these women - whether accomplished or frustrated, voluble or silent - remembers the events leading to Fiamma's disappearance."--BOOK JACKET. "Through image and emotion, recollection and observation, the women relive the horror of a long-buried secret."--BOOK JACKET.
