Summary
From acclaimed author Richard North Patterson comes a sweeping family drama of dark secrets and individual awakenings, set against the backdrop of the tumultuous summer of 1968.
America is in a state of turbulence, engulfed in civil unrest and uncertainty. Yet for Whitney Dane - spending the summer of her twenty-second year on Martha's Vineyard - life could not be safer, nor the future more certain.
Educated at Wheaton, soon to be married, and the youngest daughter of the all-American Dane family, Whitney has everything she has ever wanted and is everything her all-powerful and doting father, Charles Dane, wants her to be.
But the Vineyard's still waters are disturbed by the appearance of Benjamin Blaine. An underprivileged yet fiercely ambitious and charismatic figure, he is a force of nature neither Whitney nor her family could have prepared for.
As Ben's presence begins to awaken independence within Whitney, it also brings deep-rooted family tensions to a dangerous head. And soon Whitney's set-in-stone future becomes far from satisfactory and her picture-perfect family far from pretty.

A masterpiece
A masterpiece - the story, the quality of the writing, and (so important) the narration.

Ok
Not what I remembered from reading this author in the distant past. Just a non taxing listen. I’m in a bit of a rut book wise as I await the releases from some of my favourite authors.

Very slow progress
Hard to see what it's about even after half the book. Some of the characters were read tediously slowly. Too much description on politics which is not even relevant to the story line. The end is a humdinger though
