Rory Randall left behind two ex-wives, one current wife, three daughters (one which was adopted) and one small request. The three girls must spend the summer on Nantucket in his summer home in order to inherit it. Jenny, the adopted daughter, already lives there, but Arden and Meg must make the commitment to spend the summer there. The two of them haven't been to house since The Exile when Rory's last wife and Jenny's mother Justine accused Arden of stealing her emerald necklace and forbade both girls to ever visit again. Arden has never forgiven Justine for wrongfully accusing her, and Meg has never understood why she was forced to leave as well. After the accusation, Meg's mother wasn't comfortable having Meg stay in contact with Arden, so the three girls grew up apart.
This is a good beach book that can be read on a lazy Sunday at the end of the summer.
