Eventide (Paperback)
Not Available From Shermans.com
Description
Eventide is an archaic word meaning evening. Three couples hadn't been out for an overnight on the boat together since their twenties. Now middle-aged, with adult children, and the baggage that ebbs and flows during a life lived that long, they set out toward Monhegan Island, Maine from Portland, full of joy, telling stories of back-in-the-day, listening to 80's music. But over the course of the day, their burdens begin to seep out - a child who is addicted to drugs, possibly a fault of the father's. A son home from Afghanistan with anger issues and one leg. A senior-in-college daughter who has no desire for a job, just like her mother. Exploring Monhegan Island, conversations (and drinks) continue to flow as the afternoon wanes. By evening, it all falls apart. Back on the boat brings rain and an accident and then an opportunity taken. Collusion in murder? Can it ever work?
