Some people stay all summer long on the idyllic island of Belle Isle, North Carolina. Others come only for the weekends-and the mix between the regulars and "the weekenders" can sometimes make the sparks fly. Riley Griggs has a season of good times with friends and family ahead of her on Belle Isle when things take an unexpected turn. While waiting for her husband to arrive on the ferry one Friday afternoon, Riley is confronted by a process server who thrusts papers into her hand. And her husband is nowhere to be found.
So she turns to her island friends for help and support, but it turns out that each of them has their own secrets, and the clock is ticking as the mystery deepens...in a murderous way. Cocktail parties aside, Riley must find a way to investigate the secrets of Belle Island, the husband she might not really know, and the summer that could change everything.
Told with Mary Kay Andrews' trademark blend of humor and warmth, and with characters and a setting that you can't help but fall for, The Weekenders is the perfect summer escape.

      Narrator Kathleen McInerney lends vulnerability and self-confidence to the voice of Riley Griggs. Riley is confronted with a series of shocking truths while waiting for her husband to meet her at the ferry terminal that serves idyllic Belle Isle, North Carolina, where they will spend the summer. McInerney does a superb job of voicing the shock and dismay of a woman whose husband vanishes--leaving her in financial ruin. Her anger and disdain at being questioned by authorities sounds real as her preteen daughter's tenacious attitude. As Riley sets out to discover what has happened, she realizes Belle Isle holds many secrets, including those of family and friends, and she may be on her journey alone.
