Boats Against the Current

Fifteen years after Nick Carroway buries his friend Jay Gatsby, he finds himself entangled in the affairs of his cousin Daisy Buchannan and her now-grown daughter Pamela once again.  Answering Pamela’s desperate cry for his help when her father Tom is murdered and her mother is charged, Nick makes his way to Luxenbourg, just as the Nazis are preparing the European stage for the next world war.  Navigating in the circles of the rich and famous--the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Charles and Anne Lindbergh--will he discover Tom’s murderer and exonerate Daisy?  And what will he do with Rachel, Pamela’s Jewish professor in need of rescue and escape as the hot breath of the Nazis bears down on them all?  In this sequel to The Great Gatsby, Nick Carraway is  revived, but this time more than observer and narrator but as a protagonist in his own right.
