In his afterword, Leder recalls noticing something enchanting about the girl who stepped off thebus on Woodstocks village green, though he never guessed he was dealing with afuture superstar.

She was well dressed and attractive, perhaps a bit morepetite than your average model, Leder writes. But once he took her back to thesmall cape-style house hed rented for the summer, something extraordinaryhappened.
