Return to Eastlake

Welcome back to the small town of Eastlake, Texas, in this second series of short stories spanning several decades. Catch up on James and Ellie Sullivan who own and operate the drive-in which is prominently featured throughout the novel. As the local hangout, Sully's Drive-In once again serves as a backdrop for stories about the local schools, churches, and citizens. Revisit other favorite characters who appear in multiple tales that show them at different stages of their lives and careers.

Julie Holder has discovered the handwritten journals of Ellie Sullivan, and with the encouragement of her former teacher and mentor, Amy Davis, she decides to share the stories and the adventures they contain. Some of the tales are humorous, some tragic, others a mixture of both, but all are heartfelt and honest.

There are more school escapades as related by Langston Reynolds, Cole Bradford, and Ron Copeland, while Chris Manning, Dusty Radisson, and Matt Barnes recall memorable tales from the First Baptist Church. Learn more about the background of Ty Mills, former high school football star and current school board member. And finally, don't miss the chance to find out what really happened to Krissy Holder, as Julie shares the real story of her sister and the unsolved mystery that has haunted the town for years.

Come back to Eastlake and spend some time with the friends and family you met in the previous novel At the Drive-In.
