For 16 years, Elizabeth Conroy had been slowly suffocating in her Pollyanna straightjacket, when circumstances dealt her a crushing blow. Gone was the laughter and the life she had known as bitterness and anger bit into her soul. She knew she had to escape the city. Shaking off the trappings of her executive lifestyle she boarded a north bound train with no particular destination in mind...

Respect wasn't something Beth took for granted in the competitive world. Her dues were paid and financial rewards offered her a comfortable lifestyle. The hallmark of her success was obvious to those around her, with admiration coming from everyone, except from the man she had chosen to marry. Under the attack of the unfortune in her life, her optimism was changed into anger. At last, she chose to leave the place she lived.
