Betrayal, and madness, love, and redemption- they meet that summer on the Outer Banks.... 3 months on the New York Times Bestseller List!
Absolutely love this book! Read it 20 years ago and realized when I wanted to re-read it that I didn't own a copy. What Anne Rivers Siddons manages to do in these pages is create an atmosphere in which you feel like you are in the story experiencing everything right along with the narrator. It brings to life all the feelings that you experience in college and the strong friendships that you find while you're there.
And, to top it off there's an interesting twist at the end of the story that I wasn't expecting. Well worth the read.

This is one of the best books I have ever read. It helped that I have visited the outer banks twice now but even if you are not familiar with the banks, the author just makes it appear in you mind as beautifully as an artist could paint it. The story is a heart wrenching and enjoyable tale of four friends and a man and how they all are wrapped in each others lives from collage to there elderly days. I enjoyed every word of it. Please read this book and you won't be sorry. Enjoy!

Another wonderful book by Siddons with an idyllic setting in the Outer Banks on the North Carolina coast. It takes you away to the grand old weatherbeaten houses on the edge of the sea.
