Why We Came To The City

Five years after their college graduation, four devoted friends remain as inseparable as ever.

But for all the glitz and glamor, the festivities mark a more momentous evening than any of them realize.

Irene will first notice a curious lump under her eye.

William will fall desperately in love with her. And George will, at long last, ask Sara to marry him.

When a devastating blow threatens to tear them irreparably apart, they must struggle to carry on.
