Synopsis One woman's environmental crusade makes her unpopular with the locals in this novel by the bestselling author of THE SUMMER I DARED. Novelist Annie Barnes returns to the hometown she loathes, Middle River, whose goings-on were famously chronicled in Grace Metalious's notorious novel, PEYTON PLACE. Like Grace, Annie is engaged in digging up scandal, but her concerns have nothing to do with the local sexual peccadilloes; rather, Annie wants to know if the emissions from the local paper mill caused her mother's death and her sister's illness.
