Description: Greyhill, Virginia is a refuge of old money, old mansions, and old-fashioned ideas about who belongs and who doesn't. When Bess Warner arrives in town with her husband Cole and their kids, they'll be living across from his mother, and taking over the family's inn-keeping business. Bess lost her White House job under a cloud of scandal. She gets an opportunity to write an article for the Washington Post's lifestyle supplement, interviewing Susannah 'Cricket' Lane, who just returned to Greyhill from New York after a decades-long hiatus. As Susannah manipulates the interview sessions, Bess discovers unsettling truths about Susannah and Greyhill. -- adapted from back cover
