About the book: Daniel Green and his family have been given access to a beach house on the shores of Cape Cod for an entire summer. While he must return to Chicago for work, his family remains to enjoy the freedom and novelty of beach life. Adventures, friendships made and lost, decisions made and regretted, all enhanced and influenced by the summer ambiance of Cape Cod.

After teaching with the Mobile County Public School System, he retired ten years ago and has been living the Life of Riley ever since. Carroll is married to the same woman for almost fifty years and has one son who has provided one granddaughter. He has been writing for forty years, mostly short stories, but has completed six novels, five of which have been published.
