Women's Fiction
Something is not quite right in the leafy Savannah
neighborhood of Gordonston. As the friends and fellow
members of her afternoon cocktail club gather to mourn the
death and lament the life of their neighbor, Thelma Miller,
not all is what it seems. As old friends vie for the
attention of widower, Alderman and mayoral candidate
Elliott, jealousies surface and friendships are strained. An
old woman with a dark secret and an infamous uncle plots her
revenge for a perceived wrong done over thirty years before,
a once successful children's writer with his own secret is
haunted by memories of the past and aspiring model Kelly
Hudd has just won the trip of a lifetime.
As secrets are revealed and history, both old and recent,
unravel and an intertwined web of deceits and lies surfaces
in the middle class neighborhood a killer lurks and is
anyone really who they seem to be? A mysterious European
gentleman in South America, a young Italian count parading
the streets of Paris and a charitable and kind hearted
nephew recently arrived from India add to the remarkable
assortment of characters in this story of intrigue, deceit
and revenge. What is the secret a recently retired
accountant is trying to hide and just why did the former
showgirl and attractive sixty two year old widow Carla Zipp
really have plastic surgery? As the plot thickens and the
Georgia summer temperature rises we discover who is destined
for an early-unmarked grave in the wooded park that centers
the tree-lined avenues of Gordonston. A mysterious organization with links to organized crime, a
handsome fire fighter who can do no wrong and a trio of
widows with deep hidden agendas compound a story of
simplistic complexity. As twists and turns lead the reader
to a conclusion that they will not see coming and a sucker
punch ending that will leave readers breathless, the
Gordonston Ladies Dog Walking Club's top priority remains
the need to chastise the culprit who refuses to 'scoop'
after his dog walking sessions in their treasured park.
