Daren Lane sails past the Statue of Liberty with gassed lungs and two years of war behind him, expecting the homecoming he dreamed of in France. Instead his Middle Western hometown seems changed beyond bearing: jazz, loose manners and profiteering have taken hold, the girls he knew have new ideas, and Lane resolves to fight what he sees as moral decay.
