Summer is coming to a close on Long Island, and Alex is no longer welcome...
One misstep at a dinner party and the older man she''s been staying with dismisses her with a ride to the train station and a ticket back to the city. With few resources, but a gift for navigating the desires of others, Alex stays on the island. She drifts like a ghost through the gated driveways and sun-blasted dunes of a rarefied world, trailing destruction in her wake.
