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.
Lorri Ryan Oliver has spent most of her adult life feeding people - first as a restaurant industry professional, and later as the owner of a small restaurant in a small Connecticut town that somehow became the center of a very large world.
She came to writing the way most people come to the things that matter - sideways, late, and wondering why it took so long.
The Something In The Water series grew from a simple observation: that women of a certain age have stories that are funny and warm and occasionally breathtaking, and that nobody had been telling them quite right.
She is doing her best to fix that.
Lorri lives in the Litchfield Hills area of Connecticut, where the autumn lasts exactly as long as it should and the coffee is always on and the stories never run out.
