The High Tide Club

A Novel

De: Mary Kay Andrews

Narrado por: Kathleen McInerney

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Weekenders comes a delightful new audiobook about new love, old secrets, and the kind of friendship that transcends generations.

When 99-year-old heiress Josephine Bettendorf Warrick summons attorney Brooke Trappnell to her 20,000-acre barrier island home, Brooke is puzzled. Everybody in the South has heard about the eccentric millionaire mistress of Talisa, but Brooke has never actually met her. Josephine’s cryptic note says she wants to discuss an important legal matter, but why enlist Brooke and not the prestigious Atlanta law firm she has used for years? Brooke travels to Shellhaven and meets the cagey Josephine, whose home is a crumbling pink mansion at the edge of the turquoise sea.

Over the course of a few meetings, Josephine spins a tale of old friendships, dark secrets, betrayal, and a long-unsolved murder. She is hiring Brooke for two reasons: first, to protect her island from those who would despoil her land, and second, to help her make amends with the heirs of the women who were her closest friends, the girls of the High Tide Club - so named because of their youthful skinny-dipping escapades - Millie, Ruth, and Varina. To fulfill a dying woman’s wishes, Brooke must find Josephine’s friends’ descendants and bringing them together on Talisa for a reunion of women who’ve actually never met. But in doing so, Brooke unleashes the makings of a scandal that could make someone rich beyond their wildest dreams...or cause them to be in the crosshairs of a murderer....

The High Tide Club is Mary Kay Andrews at her Queen-of-the-Beach-Books best, a story shrouded in mystery, Spanish moss, verandah cocktails, 1940s dinner dances, love lost, and possibly...love found.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Another satisfying summer read from the queen of the beach." (Kirkus)

main character I ANNOYING

Decent book with one if the more annoying main characters. She is beyond annoying at times and her mothering her sin left me gritting my teeth.

Best book I've read in a long time

Great story with good unexpected twists. Loved it from start to finish. Excellent narrator.

Loved it!!!!!

Really enjoyed the characters as well as all the twist and turns. Definitely recommend this book!

Lots of twists keep you guessing

Ms Andrews has created a bunch of characters you enjoy reading about and would like to get to know better. The story kept me guessing and was much more than the light-hearted mystery I thought it would be.

A Must Read

A great story with many twists! I couldn't stop listening! The narrator really helps
give an identity to the different characters with her different voices.

So Many Twists !

What a fascinating story! Every time I thought I had it figured out, there was a new twist. Loved it.

Should be a movie

I love this presentation of the novel. The narrator gives a different inflection for the many characters voices without sound over-the-top or silly. It was a little long but I was pretty into it so I can forgive that. So far, this is my favorite book I have read by this author.

Wonderful read

Four stars only because of the resolution of Henry was too short. Loved the weaving of the rest!

Great story full of twists.

Loved the storyline that kept surprising me and the wonderful character voices that represented them perfectly.

Great Summer read

I enjoyed the story and the characters. The plot was predictable at times but a few twists and turns caught me by surprise
