A town on the brink of a glamourous future. A marriage drifting apart. A life on the edge of what is and what could be... Montauk, Long Island, 1938 For three months, this humble fishing village serves as the playground for New York City's wealthy elite. For Beatrice Bordeaux, a college-educated farm girl from rural Pennsylvania, her focus is reconnecting with her banker husband, Harry. Instead, she's spending twelve weeks sequestered with other high-society wives at the Montauk Manor--a two-hundred-room seaside hotel--while her husband dallies in his "extracurricular activities." As Bea drifts further from the Manhattanites and toward Montauk's natural beauty and community spirit, she finds herself drawn to a man nothing like her husband. But moments like these can be fleeting when fate conspires to tear worlds apart. This description comes from the publisher.
