About the book
01 / THE COLLECTION
Martha’s Vineyard Island. Summer playground to the rich and famous. Ancestral island home to indigenous people and ordinary folks that have kept the place working. A land of pastoral beauty, small town charm and polite ways among its inhabitants. Just six miles off the coast of Massachusetts but a world away from life on the mainland, a place of comity, authenticity and refuge.
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, whatever they could pocket.
This is the 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.
