Daniel Keating's taste for cheap thrills and a life of frivolity suddenly take a turn when he awakens one morning to find himself lying next to the corpse of his would-be girlfriend and daughter of a prominent attorney, the vivacious and beautiful Summer Drake. Unable to recall the drunken details of the night before and now threatened with the possibility of being implicated in her death, Daniel makes a decision that will forever alter his life. While immersed in the details of shielding himself from investigators, he discovers a revealing volume of Summer's poetry that offers clues to why a beautiful girl would follow a path toward self-destruction. As he slowly pieces together the mysteries of a woman he only thought he knew, he discovers a dark secret in her past that, once revealed, brings to light an unimaginable truth. Written in a fierce and innovative style, Losing Summer tells the provocative story of a man's descent into mystery and self-discovery that will both pull him, and the reader, into a deep web of intrigue.
"I died one summer, or I almost did. Part of me did. I don't say that to be dramatic, only because it's true." For the past nine years, Helena Waite has been returning to summer camp at Southpoint. Every year the camp and its familiar routines, landmarks, and people have welcomed her back like a long-lost family member. But this year she is returning not as a camper, but as a counselor, while her best friend, Katie Bell remains behind. All too quickly, Helena discovers that the innocent world of campfires, singalongs, and field days have been pushed aside for late night pranks on the boys' camp, skinny dipping in the lake, and stolen kisses in the hayloft. As she struggles to define herself in this new world, Helena begins to lose sight of what made camp special and the friendships that have sustained her for so many years. And when Ransome, her longtime crush, becomes a romantic reality, life gets even more confusing. Told with honesty and heart, Kathryn Williams' second novel tackles the timeless theme of growing up, set at a camp where innocence is created and lost.
