From the back cover..."Conrad Labrande is a 1st generation Basque fisherman who casts his nets in the treacherous waters og the Atlantic. He is a working class man in a region of Long Island sharply divided between those who inhabit this isolated finger of land year-round, and the wealthy who claim it every summer. But in post-war America, the landscape is changing quickly. And lives too will change - affecting everyone in the community - when Conrad's nets pull in the body of a beautiful young woman, seaweed twined in her hair..."
Wonderful book full of strong character development and vivid desciptions of life in Amagansett. Neat combination of a love story, murder, secrets and betrayal.
