    Summary

    "Now he can’t escape the faint music seeping through his walls the past three nights. The low hum of the bass is just barely perceptible but enough that he can feel the vibration in his bones. The melodies floating in the air, teasing him like a half-remembered dream that he can't quite grasp. What he hears most clearly are the screams from the crowd as each song comes to an end, a muffled roar that rolls over him like a far-off thunder.

    He shifts positions again and tries not to think about who they’re cheering for."

    *****

    It’s four years after Chicago and Billy is at a crossroads…

    Summary

    "Suddenly it’s the summer of 1976 again, when a gallon of gas cost 59 cents and it was impossible to turn on the radio without hearing Paul McCartney sing about silly love songs, and nothing, not even guzzling champagne, felt as good as putting a song together with this man. Of course she smiles with all her teeth."

    Picks up immediately post-finale. What kind of stories would two people need to tell themselves to stay away from each other for 20 years? And what could convince them that none of those stories were true?
