"Kathleen McInerney superbly narrates this perfect summer listen."—AudioFile

"Narrator Kathleen McInerney exudes beach-read energy in this entertaining audiobook." —AudioFile on The Homewreckers

Book your summer escape with a "mesmerizing mix of mystery and romance" (Publishers Weekly, starred) from the New York Times bestselling author of The Homewreckers and The Newcomer.

Welcome to the St. Cecelia, a landmark hotel on the coast of Georgia, where traditions run deep and scandals run even deeper. . . .

Everyone refers to the St. Cecelia as “the Saint.” If you grew up coming here, you were “a Saint.” If you came from the wrong side of the river, you were “an Ain’t.” Traci Eddings was one of those outsiders whose family wasn’t rich enough or connected enough to vacation here. But she could work here. One fateful summer she did, and married the boss’s son. Now, she’s the widowed owner of the hotel, determined to see it return to its glory days, even as staff shortages and financial troubles threaten to ruin it. Plus, her greedy and unscrupulous brother-in-law wants to make sure she fails. Enlisting a motley crew of recently hired summer help—including the daughter of her estranged best friend—Traci has one summer season to turn it around. But new information about a long-ago drowning at the hotel threatens to come to light, and the tragic death of one of their own brings Traci to the brink of despair.

Traci Eddings has her back against the pink-painted wall of this beloved institution. And it will take all the wits and guts she has to see wrongs put to right, to see guilty parties put in their place, and maybe even to find a new romance along the way. Told with Mary Kay Andrew’s warmth, humor, knack for twists, and eye for delicious detail about human nature, Summers at the Saint is a beach listen with depth and heart.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Another great MKA summer beach read

This book was the perfect beach kick-off read for me. A mix of all kinds of issues and personalities. The Saint touched on so many emotions. Thank you MKA....looking forward to the next one.

So good!!

I grew up on St. Simons Island and frequently still visit the Cloister on Sea Island. So many references put me right back there! The book has it all— humor, angst, romance, action, danger… I wish there was more to listen to!!

Ok story - narration not so good

Story was good enough to keep me listening when I wanted to quit due to the narration. The narrator had a strange habit of kind of stopping and then continuing - really annoying.

Excellent

Although I was initially distracted by so many characters, I enjoyed this story. Excellent narrators, good mystery, layered stories, and lovable protagonists.
