| Summary |
Zomorod (Cindy) Yousefzadeh is the new kid on the block... for the fourth time. Californias Newport Beach is her familys latest perch, and shes determined to shuck her brainy loner persona and start afresh with a new Brady Bunch name -- Cindy. Its the late 1970s, and fitting in becomes more difficult as Iran makes U.S. headlines with protests, revolution, and finally the taking of American hostages. Even mood rings and puka shell necklaces cant distract Cindy from the anti-Iran sentiments that creep way too close to home. |
