Beautiful Lee Sanitarium, on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River in Natchez, Mississippi, is the setting for this tender story of Angela Lorraine Demming. She is a fifty nine year old identical twin who is given a second chance at youth. Her husband unknowingly makes a necklace for her from a radioactive gold nugget. The odd and short lived radiation affects her in an amazing way. The story follows her backwards through the aging process with her twin sister Betty at her side.
Angela is fortunate to spend her convalescence in a very unique nursing home. It is an antebellum mansion in Natchez Mississippi which caters to ladies who wish to spend their later years in a genteel mid nineteenth century setting.
