In 1978, Misha Gaffney is one of the first two women allowed to enter the male world of managerial training for Air England not knowing that she has been chosen only to fill a quota, and with every expectation of failure. From New York to London, in Sri Lanka, Bombay, Johannesburg, and Nairobi, Misha relies on her cast-iron will and her wits to prove that, in her, Air England has found an unbreakable spirit with the potential to rise to leadership in the airline industry. But in the course of her fierce struggle to the top, she learns that choices and decisions often bring wholly unexpected consequences, and demand dues she never thought she'd have to pay. Eventually, Misha must choose between the world she has chiseled from the hard rock of resistance, her passionate love for one man, and another man whose love has shaped her. How does one know which, of all loves shades and shapes, will ultimately prove to be the pearl of great price? The Watering Hole is a story of life's deepest encounters, fear, love, betrayal, and loss on the often treacherous road to authenticity.
