Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A taut, page-turning novel of secrets and strife. When two families--one rich, one not--vacation together off the coast of South Carolina, little do they know that someone won't be returning home. Fripp Island, South Carolina is the perfect destination for the wealthy Daly family: Lisa, Scott, and their two girls. For Lisa's childhood friend, Poppy Ford, the resort island is a world away from the one she and Lisa grew up in--and when Lisa invites Poppy's family to join them, how can a working-class woman turn down an all-expenses paid vacation for her husband and children? But everyone brings secrets to the island, distorting what should be a convivial, relaxing summer on the beach. Lisa sees danger everywhere--the local handyman can't be allowed near the children, and Lisa suspects Scott is fixated on something, or someone, else. Poppy watches over her husband John and his routines with a sharp eye. It's a summer of change for all of the children: Ryan Ford who prepares for college in the fall, Rae Daly who seethes on the brink of adulthood, and the two youngest, Kimmy Daly and Alex Ford, who are exposed to new ideas and different ways of life as they forge a friendship of their own. Those who return from this vacation will spend the rest of their lives trying to process what they witnessed, the tipping points, moments of violence and tenderness, and the memory of whom they left behind.

Download or read book Pop s Pier written by Donna Calhoun and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2019-06-17 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For seven decades, Byron Calhoun overlooked the muddy brown water of Mobile Bay in Alabama. He’d seen it all throughout the years from the end of the pier—sailboats, tugboats, Jet Skis, and yachts. Byron and his wife spent hours on that pier trying to figure out the stories of the people and the events they watched year after year. In Pop’s Pier, author Donna Calhoun, Byron’s daughter, shares a collection of stories reflecting more than fifty years of life on the pier and her father’s unending love of his family, his friends, and the water. From Byron’s arrival on the island in the early 1960s, this memoir takes a walk down memory lane. It shares recollections of the experiences, both the good times and the sad, that shaped life on the bay—from fishing to weather patterns and the art of mixing a good drink. Pop’s Pier offers a loving celebration of Donna’s father and the legacy he left behind.

Haleole, and Kepelino Keauokalani, each of whom has made important contributions to our knowledge of the old culture." -from the Introduction
