Nieuwsgierig naar het verhaal achter onze nieuwe stijl?
It's 1968, and Nezzie Fergerson, a lonely cocktail waitress at Copper Pipe Lounge, finds herself in a new city with a new job and lofty aspirations to find peace and contentment. Nezzie meets the man of her dreams, Mathias Whaley, a hard-working steelworker; even though he seems to be perfect, her feelings of pain and self-doubt hold her back. The young independent loner moves from the past and into Mathias' waiting arms, only to find the road to love and healing is going to be a bumpy one. At the height of the Civil Rights Movement, things were tough for working-class residents of the Hill District in Pittsburgh, PA. Still, despite economic hardships and secrets from the past, Nezzie decides her heart has been captured by an alluring young steelworker with a tender spirit. Together they find themselves wading through the turmoil, uncertainties, and pressures of racism. As ugly scars heal, and the darkness is brought to the surface, Mathias sees his "good thing" is closer than ever before.
