The A to Rockaway
For two decades, Connie has lived a desperate existence in limbo and exile, following the tragic death of her young husband and unborn child.
In 2000, she sees a picture of her late husband’s handsome young brother, Sam, and hatches a plan to return to New York and, finally, live the life previously denied to her.
Connie’s first stop is her old home, the iconic Dakota building. A place where hidden secrets of blackmail and deceit begin to collide with forgotten figures from her past.
A long-adoring computer geek competes with Sam for Connie’s affections as the trio head out to Hawaii for a suspense-filled, madcap chase across the islands in pursuit of buried treasure. A jealous sister with her Machiavellian boyfriend team up with a deranged Eastern European collector to complicate matters. An all-seeing, ghostly boy with valuable information from the distant past proves more than a useful ally.
Connie must put everything on the line to uncover the life-changing cache of gold. One misstep along the way, and she must return to her haunted, unlived life.
