Synopsis

In this sequel to Peter Scott's first novel, Something in the Water, islanders face another invasion, this one by refugees from the turbulent social upheavals of the late 1960s. In this book, hippies, Vietnam veterans, and back-to-the-landers bring with them beliefs and behaviors that seem to threaten the traditional island ways and outrage the islanders' sense of right and wrong.
