Author's Note

The year is 1949, and Jean Louise "Scout" Finch Harris is now 21, living and working in New York as a an author and part-time poet alongside her husband and childhood-friend, Charles Baker "Dill" Harris, 23, recently-graduated law school student and highly-praised defense attorney. The two haven't been back to Maycomb since their wedding, just weeks after Scout's 18th birthday, and have decided to return for a visit, and when an old, long-forgotten friend turns up at their doorstep, they find themselves right back at where they started, 15 years into the future.
