“IF YOU'VE EVER WISHED BARBARA KINGSOLVER WROTE A BOURNE FILM, THIS IS YOUR NOVEL" –Rebecca Handler, MacDowell Fellow and award-winning authorA lyrical, high-stakes romance thriller inspired by The Great Gatsby.A Summer for Moths is the ballad of Booth Baker, working musician and songwriter hiding out in the guise of a handyman and terrorized by the death in high school that forced him to flee his hometown.When Booth receives the call from his estranged brother with a summer job offer helping maintain rental properties in Connecticut, he’s thrust into the secret world of the “Gold Coast.” There he meets Abby Evers – beautiful, transfixing, and haunted by her own demons. His desire brings him, moth-like, closer to the flames. Soon, Booth is caught in a web woven much tighter than he could’ve imagined. And when he discovers the truth behind Abby’s husband and his business partners’ dealings, he’s forced to place everything on the line: the chance to reconcile his past, his and Abby’s life in the present, and their chance at a future together.

Recensioner i media

“If you've ever wished Barbara Kingsolver wrote a Bourne film, this is your novel. From the opening pages, where you learn the protagonist was named after Lincoln's assassin, you're off on a wild ride. A Summer for Moths is filled with lovable and problematic characters, sharp and funny dialogue, and a tenderness at its core. I can't wait for the soundtrack.” –Rebecca Handler, MacDowell Fellow and author of Edie Richter is Not Alone and the upcoming In the Round
