Days of wonder : a novel / by Caroline Leavitt.

Summary:

"As a teenager, for a moment, Ella Fitchburg found love--yearning, breathless love--that consumed both her and her boyfriend, Jude, as they wandered the streets of New York City together. But her glorious life was pulled out from beneath her after she was accused of trying to murder Jude's father, an imperious superior court judge. When she learns she's pregnant shortly after receiving a long prison sentence, she reluctantly decides to give up the child. Ella is released from prison after only six years and is desperate to turn the page on a new life, but she can't seem to let go of her past. With only an address as a possible lead, she moves to Ann Arbor, Michigan, determined to get her daughter back. Hiding her identity and living in a constant state of deception, she finds that what she's been searching for all along is a way to uncover--and live with--the truth. Yet a central mystery endures: neither Jude nor Ella can remember the events leading up to the attempted murder--that fateful night which led to Ella's conviction"--Provided by publisher.
