Summary
In a gesture of support and affection for a long-time neighbor who has fallen ill, women in a suburban development tie white ribbons to trees in front of their houses and embark on a powerful journey of transformation. Paisley Lamm has always been the neighborhood star, an effervescent beauty whose charm draws all of them in. As they grapple with her illness, they begin to see the issues in their own lives with new perspective: a marriage put on hold because of a difficult child, a nurse's eerie and unwanted gift of diagnosis, a widow's destructive bitterness, and the price of a successful career -- all come into play to shape their stories. As they learn to say goodbye, Paisley's neighbors draw from her the courage to change, and they discover that life is richer and more precious than they ever imagined
