From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Empire Falls
comes a new revelation: a riveting story about the abiding yet
complex power of friendship. One beautiful September day, three
men convene on Martha's Vineyard, friends ever since meeting in
college circa the sixties. Now, more than forty years later, as
this new weekend unfolds, three lives are displayed in their
entirety while the distant past confounds the present like a
relentless squall of surprise and discovery. Shot through with
Russo's trademark comedy and humanity, Chances Are . . . also
introduces a new level of suspense and menace that will quicken
the reader's heartbeat throughout this absorbing saga of how
friendship's bonds are every bit as constricting and rewarding
as those of family or any other community.
Characters: 29. Amazon rating: 4 stars. Genre: Mystery.
