The Invaders

Cheryl has never been the right kind of country-club wife. She's always felt like an outsider, and now, in her mid-forties-- facing the harsh realities of aging while her marriage disintegrates and her troubled stepson, Teddy, is kicked out of college-- she feels cast adrift by the sparkling seaside community of Little Neck Cove, Connecticut. So when Teddy shows up at home just as a storm brewing off the coast threatens to destroy the precarious safe haven of the cove, she joins him in an epic downward spiral. This searing novel casts a harsh light on the glossy sheen of even the most ""perfect"" lives in America's exclusive beach communities.
