Affairs, pills, and politics collide among the summer houses set in this "au courant, fine-tuned" satire of an exclusive New England resort town (Kirkus Reviews).
Welcome to Cable Harbor, Maine, a quaint seaside refuge where gossip, vanity, and revenge make for a potent summer cocktail. Meet Marie, a rich middle-aged divorcée hell-bent on getting even with her ex; Arthur and Herbert, Cable Harbor's resident gay couple and the happiest marriage in town; Marjorie, wife of the local caterer and an ardent crusader against the corrupt summer vacationers; and Laura, in her twenties and recently fired from a New York publishing house.
Cavorting at the beach club, sipping vodka and lemonade, the idle rich while away the days—until the townies declare open warfare and no one's secrets are safe. In this debut novel, Donald Bowie captures the craziness that overcomes us all in the summertime.
