Ingredients for a summer sizzler: Mix sex and money. Add a shocking murder. Stir to perfection by writers at the top of their game, and you've got the page-turner of the season, ready for your suntan-lotioned hands!
All summer, law student Jack Mullen's weekend escapes from the sweltering city home to the breezy--and swanky—Hamptons have been pleasure-filled interludes...until now. Jack's kid brother Peter is dead. The police say Peter drowned on financier Barry Neubauer's private beach—case closed. But Jack's not buying it. Peter had a lot of money stashed away, much more than he could have earned parking cars at the millionaire's weekend bashes. Jack doesn't want to see a connection to Neubauer since he himself has been dating the man's daughter, Dana. But that ends when he spies her getting cozy with the chief of police! Not surprisingly, the Manhattan law firm where Jack's been interning—and where Neubauer is an important client—fires him. Fortunately the firm's feisty investigator, Pauline Grabowski, is more interested in Jack than her job; she learns Peter was into sexcapades with the Hampton in-crowd. Now Jack feels certain his brother was murdered, and it was planned and paid for by the people he was "servicing." So, free of charge, Jack's going to provide something none of them expects—justice. How he does it is what makes The Beach House the best thriller you'll read all summer!
