Desperate Island: One Summer Season on Martha's Vineyard - Paperback

by Charles Furlong (Author)

Martha's Vineyard Island. Summer playground of the rich and famous. A land of pastoral beauty, small town charm and polite ways among its inhabitants. But there was a dark side to paradise. A seamy underbelly invisible to most. A shadowy realm where posers and grifters of every sort were on the make, working the Island for whatever they could score. This is the tongue-in-cheek story of one summer season when avarice and lust ran rampant on Martha's Vineyard, that storied summer the Island pretty much lost its mind.
