The story follows the main character, Mary Gilligan, who is a talented acrobatic dancer coping with personal and social changes amidst World War I. As Mary navigates the ups and downs of her career and romantic relationships, she also grapples with feelings of patriotism and duty.  At the start of the book, Mary is unexpectedly faced with a breaking engagement with her dance partner, Jim, after a comedic mishap involving an alligator at a party. This event, characterized by Mary's witty narration and sharp observations, leads her to contemplate her role in the war and decide to enlist in a women's automobile service to contribute to the war effort. Meanwhile, she experiences the tumultuous feelings of love, loss, and the desire for self-identity, all while managing the complex dynamics within her theatrical community. The opening sets a light-hearted yet poignant tone, engaging readers with both humor and emotion as Mary seeks her path amid brewing chaos.
