December, 1937, Grand Central Terminal. Joe Reynolds, a railroad man from Queens, meets Nora Lansing, a Manhattan socialite whose flapper clothing, pearl earrings, and talk of the Roaring Twenties don't seem to match the bleak mood of Depression-era New York. Captivated, Joe despairs when he tries to walk her home and she disappears. Finding her again will become the focus of his love and his life. Nora has somehow been trapped in the terminal, governed by rules she cannot fathom and the astrological phenomenon known as Manhattanhenge. Joe and Nora take full advantage of the "Terminal City" within a city-- until construction of another historic landmark threatens their future. -- adapted from jacket
