After finally achieving some measure of peace and contentment on the tip of Oak Point overlooking the Little Peconic Bay, Sam Acquillo is yet again an accidental player in other people’s dramas. It takes him into the world of private security goons, predatory financiers, and lifestyles of young hedonists, some brave, some beautiful, all a bit lost.

But this time there’s some added incentive, an opportunity Sam thought he’d never see again, the chance to get a piece of his old life back, the only piece he might actually want.
