Hanging by a Thread

You can take the girl out of Queens. Or can you? Because for five years, fashion assistant Ellie Levine was taking a halfhearted stab at it, commuting to Manhattan by day, trying desperately to keep secret her outerborough existence-that accent, that hair.that daughter. Until the day fate landed her back in her Richmond Hill neighborhood 24/7, the very place she'd sworn to escape. Now she has a business to run there-not the business she had in mind, perhaps, but a business nonetheless.
