The Gold Coast
Full Description
Welcome to the fabled Gold Coast, that stretch on the North Shore of Long Island that once held the greatest concentration of wealth and power in America.

Critical Praise
"Captivating...addictive...irresistible!"
-Washington Post Book World
"A fascinating, poignantly funny, well-crafted story about two dying breeds."
