During the period of a summertime in a prosperous Connecticut community, a forty-something woman and her college-age stepson's lives break apart in a series of violent shocks. Cheryl has never been the right type of country-club partner. She's always believed like an outsider, and today, in her midforties - facing the tough realities of ageing while her marriage disintegrates and her troubled stepson, Teddy, is kicked out of college - she feels cast adrift by the dazzling seaside community of Little Neck of the guitar Cove, Connecticut. So when Teddy shows up at home as a storm brewing off the coast threatens to ruin the precarious safe haven of the cove, she joins him within an epic unpredictable manner. The Invaders, a searing follow-up to Karolina Waclawiak's critically acclaimed debut novel, How to find yourself in the Twin Palms, casts a tough light on the glossy sheen of even the most "perfect" lives in America's exclusive beach communities. With sharpened wit and dark humor, The Invaders exposes the lays and insecurities that run like mistake lines through our culture, intimidating to pitch tired housewives, pill-popping children, and suspicious neighbors headlong in to the suburban abyss.
