ABOUT MUSTIQUE ISLAND:

Sarah McCoy weaves a tale set on the sun-splashed and exotic Mustique Island in the 1970s.

 

As the world’s most exclusive private island, the upper echelons of society flock to the luxurious island to hide from the press. 

After a brutal divorce, Willy May, an adventurous former beauty queen, sought out Mustique for its peaceful isolation. 

 

Determined to rebuild her life and her relationships with her two daughters, Hilly, a model, and Joanne, a musician, she constructs a fanciful beach house across the island from Princess Margaret—and finds herself pulled into the island’s inner circle of aristocrats, rock stars, and hangers-on.

 

When Willy May’s daughters arrive, they discover that living on the exotic island of Mustique offers an escape from reality, and like sand caught in the undertow, their relationship will shift and resettle in ways they never could have imagined.
