THE DOUBLE MAN

The death -- by misadventure -- of Hanley Alken leads Tess, his unbereft widow, to pursue the inconsistencies in the case which she does not consider closed. Cape Cod, a close but allen colony of artists, the malevolent benevolence of a patroness who is the next to die, and a brooding romance alert all to the clear and present danger which is a hangover from the past.... For some, the glassine glamor as before -- which others may find skindeep.
