This year's 100th anniversary of Grand Central has kindled a new interest not just in the beautiful building itself but also in the millions of people that have passed through the cavernous hallways and turnstiles; along with their stories. This anthology shines a spotlight on a moment of great power and possibility when the war was over; and the world was about to be changed-forever.Authors include 10 popular authors of women's fiction-Jenna Blum, New York Times bestselling author of Those Who Save UsSarah Jio, New York Times bestselling author of Blackberry WinterPam Jenoff, bestselling author of The Ambassador's DaughterAlyson Richman, bestselling author of The Lost WifeAmanda Hodgkinson, New York Times bestselling author of 22 Britannia RoadMelanie Benjamin, New York Times bestselling author of The Aviator's WifeKaren White, New York Times bestselling author of After the RainSarah McCoy, bestselling author of The Baker's DaughterErika Robuck, critically acclaimed author of Hemingway's GirlKristina McMorris, New York Times bestselling author of Bridge of Scarlet LeavesAlso, writing the introduction-Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Home FrontTen bestselling authors inspired by New York City's iconic Grand Central Terminal have created their own stories, set on the same day, just after the end of World War II, in a time of hope, uncertainty, change, and renewal....A war bride awaits the arrival of her GI husband at the platform...A Holocaust survivor works at the Oyster Bar, where a customer reminds him of his late mother...A Hollywood hopeful anticipates her first screen test and a chance at stardom in the Kissing Room...On any particular day, thousands upon thousands of people pass through Grand Central, through the whispering gallery, beneath the ceiling of stars, and past the information booth and its beckoning four-faced clock, to whatever destination is calling them.
