Summary: "Tucked between old cedars and a spring-fed lake in Massachusetts, the Mayhaven beach club has long been the ultimate escape to understated exclusivity. It's the place where Darcy Birch is supposed to be experiencing the best summer of her life, but there are a few things standing in her way. Her high-strung mother won't stop hovering over her, her father is consumed by his job as president of Mayhaven, where she works as a summer camp counselor, and her neurodivergent little brother is struggling to live with a measure of independence not everyone is ready for. Then there is the matter of the new neighbors. Flick Creevy and his mother and stepfather have arrived in town, parking their enormous RV, not to mention the all-night music and clouds of marijuana, in the Birches's perfectly landscaped backyard. Pushed to get a job at Mayhaven by his mother, who had her eyes on a new life for their family, Flick's own eyes have been opened to the ways of the upper crust. Even though Mayhaven prides itself on being an inclusive association of good New England families with good New England values, the fact remains: either you're on the inside or the outside. As the heat of summer increases, it's soon clear that the members of Mayhaven will have to struggle to stay cool."--
