In this follow-up to the Amazon #1 classic family saga of historical fiction, mystery and suspense, The EmmaLee Affairs, Michael Lindley revisits the idyllic resort community of Charlevoix, Michigan. It's 1951, and lawyer, George Hansen, has found himself on the wrong end of bad situations in the past, but never one so unpopular when he steps up to defend a local Native American boy accused of the alleged sexual assault of the daughter of one of the town's most prominent summer residents.

His best friend, Jonathan McKendry, now married to doctor, Emily Compton McKendry, finds himself desperately trying to save his wife and a young family from a brutal and murderous father.

In the parallel modern-day story, George Hansen looks down from his passing into the next world to see the events that develop in the search for his killer, as well as the challenges faced by the Clark family as Alex Clark tries to save his business empire and his marriage, and daughter, Megan, lets her infatuation for a young local boy alienate the summer families who she thought were her friends.

Connor Harris also returns to create new problems with plans to develop an unpopular and ecologically unfriendly real estate development on the lake.

Praise for The Summer Town

"… another stellar novel… even more compelling than EmmaLee."

"… a great success… a delightful read."

"… after falling in love with Seasons of the EmmaLee, this was a must read!"

"…Lindley is a masterful storyteller, effortlessly moving between past and present."

"… a rising talent."
