Wayne

By Lorri Ryan Oliver

Wayne Xavier calls from Stamford on a Tuesday in June. He's coming to Thornbury for the weekend. He has the Impala, a reservation at a new inn on Main Street, and the particular confidence of a man who has driven this road before and intends to drive it again.

Lorri Oliver has a restaurant to run, a town that is starting to notice her, and a red leather booth that Wayne knows better than to take for granted.

She also has a question she cannot yet answer - the kind that arrives quietly, without announcing itself, and sits down at the bar and waits.

Wayne is the third book in the Something in the Water series. A Ferris wheel in June. A craftsman's hand at the first button. A fork on the table that nobody has picked up yet.

And at the bar on a Tuesday in October, a man from Ridgefield who drove an hour without being asked and didn't need to ask for her.

The Something in the Water series just got complicated.

Finish the book. There's something waiting for you at the end.
