Friends like these : a novel
(Book)

Everyone has friends that it doesn't matter how badly they've behaved, or how late it is when that call finally comes, you show up. No questions asked. When five friends from college end up in the Catskills ten years later, they have the best of intentions. Especially after what happened to Alice all those years ago. They're a complicated group-- so much history and so many big personalities. Secrets, too, that can slip out at the most inopportune moments. There's something beautiful about that kind of unconditional love... but it can turn ugly. After all, they have so very much to hide. -- adapted from jacket
