Chubby femme bisexual from Louisiana meets effortlessly cool butch Chinese American, except the latter is from the 1970s and is stuck on the subway.  Both August and Jane have bounced around the country looking for a home (and an identity), only to meet in New York in what should have been impossible circumstances.  August had an unconventional childhood surrounded by a neverending investigation into a missing relative, and Jane survived the violence against queer people as a revolutionary in the gay liberation movement.  Of course they fall in love.  With a very diverse cast of characters and a race to save a neighborhood landmark, One Last Stop explores community and queer magic in more ways than one.
