From the author of the Kindle Scout winning Evelyn Marsh; and Time Management, a novel; comes this gently humorous exploration of life (and death) on the San Mateo coast. A closet novelist. An erstwhile rock star. A retiring wine importer. A crab fisherman. A dot-com widow. What do they have in common? They're all denizens of the small town of Seal Cove in Northern California, and they're all members of a loose affiliation that calls itself The Seal Cove Theoretical Society.
When Tom Birmingham has a near-death experience, Fate charges him with tying up "loose ends." A disparate group of neighbors rally to his aid, each bringing issues of their own to the conversation. The discovery of a cache of Prohibition Era liquor, and the auction/party that the Society stages, reveal the often overlooked connections we find in community.
