  • "It is 1970 and Kate Starr is determined to be the perfect wife, the perfect mother, and the perfect housekeeper. Her husband, Patrick, is her whole world - even when he departs for a tour of duty in Vietnam. But when Patrick is listed as MIA, Kate must rely on herself for the first time in her life. It's an uphill struggle from the start - emotionally, physically, financially. Kate feels she has no talent, no job qualifications - all she knows is how to be a wife and mother. But the bureaucracy, red tape, and utter callousness of the U.S. government's policy regarind MIAs fuels Kate's rage. She organizes a support group and fights the system, determined to make noise any way she can. It is the beginning of a new Kate Starr. Five years, ten years, fifteen years pass... and Kate continues to transform herself: she raises her two daughters, puts herself through school, and starts a successful business. Twenty years after her husband disappears in action, Kate finds love again."
