Synopsis: Judy finds love with a good man she would have judged to be too ugly for her consideration though neighbors bury dead things in their yard, parents fake a kidnapping for cash, bodies float in the lake, drunk teens don't take no for an answer and much worse is to come. Suddenly widowed and penniless Judy is forced to move into her sister's vacation cabin on Green Lake. But instead of quiet and solitude, she finds herself immersed in a world of depravity, blackmail and--ultimately--murder. And what should she think of the tall and taciturn Native American who lives next door? From one of the most sophisticated novelists and utilizing the explosive mating of the terrifying and the deceptively prosaic, comes this hair-raising story of a most unlikely couple, who find themselves dangerously alone in a deceptively pleasant-seeming recreational community. Engrossing light book for the beach or a relaxing weekend.
