Pretty good mystery from 1954. If you don't like mysteries, book is also very interesting as social history. While knew that the Hamptons were a wealthy beach town for just about forever, did not know it was also an artists colony. Some of the story involves the social gatherings of both the yacht club swells and the bohemians and Gore Vidal was a man who could very easily move between the two. Too bad he only wrote three of these. TPB
