About Shell Games
Fall of 1979 - the Beach Season at the Jersey Shore is over, the tourists are gone and a tumultuous decade is drawing to a close. But for Long Beach Island detective Mickey Cleary, life rarely provides any lulls. Mickey faces a crossroads - the mounting challenges of being a widowed single mother, an investigation that's become more personal than professional, and a looming threat to her two young children. Can these obstacles succeed in undoing everything she's worked for since arriving in 1967? The answer lies in a ruined factory on a dangerous and desolate speck of land a few watery miles from LBI's southern tip. Will it mark a tragic end? Or a new beginning? Vous decouvirez, the French say. You'll find out.
