Olympia Biddeford is a precocious and high-spirited young girl who isn't shy about expressing her own opinions. But Olympia also isn't shy about expressing her sexuality -- with John Haskell, one of her father's friends who is 30 years her senior. The lovers are soon discovered, and both of their lives are torn apart: Haskell's wife leaves him, and Olympia is sent by her father to a school out west. When Olympia delivers John's baby nine months later, the child is taken from her and adopted by another family. But Olympia will stop at nothing to get her son back -- including returning to Fortune's Rocks.
