Book Description:
Three cassettes / approx. 5 hours
In a summer community on the coast of New Hampshire at the turn of the last century, a girl is drawn into a passionate affair with a man nearly three times her age. Fortune's Rocks is the story of Olympia Biddeford, proveleged, well-educated, and mature beyond her years, and her affair with John Haskell, who not only is a physician, essayist, and champion of mill workers bot also a married man with children. Drawn inexorably together on the night of the summer solstice, the pair set in motion a series of events with far-reaching consequences for all involved.

Lorraine G. from FULTON, MD wrote on 1/20/2006...I enjoyed this book - slightly predictable but a few surprises too!
Very good story....slow to start...but I loved the ending.
