The verdict from the threejudge panel is in. Cecil Younger, bumbling criminal defence investigator and totally embarrassing father, has been sentenced to sevenandahalf years in prison for his involvement in... well, a number of things, ranging from destruction of private property to killing a guy. But compared to the original twentyfiveyear sentence, its not so bad. His success with getting his sentence reduced has attracted the attention of his fellow inmates, and one man, Fourth Street, reaches out for advice for his upcoming parole hearing in exchange for protection and companionship. When he isnt reading Adrienne Rich or James Baldwin with Fourth Street, Cecil spends his time filling up large yellow legal pads. He writes, mostly, about his teenage daughter, Blossom, who is on a Nancy Drewlike quest to help her friend, George, discover the truth about her biological parents, which turns out to be complicated. Shortly after submitting a mailin genetics test, George learns she is the infamous Baby Jane Doe who was kidnapped from her Native mother shortly after she was born. A media and legal circus quickly ensues, and Georges reunion with her birth family isnt the heartwarming story the journalists hoped it would be. There is an even darker secret about the babysnatching case, a secret threatens to destroy not just Georges family but Cecils as well.
