520    "School teacher Julie Barlow and her two best friends, 
       Beth and Aggie, are looking forward to an adults only 
       beach vacation. They've barely hit the road when a frantic
       call from Julie's mother hijacks their best laid plans. 
       Uncle Tony "Lucky" Costa is missing. Always entertaining, 
       often irresponsible, never reliable, Uncle Lucky was a 
       favorite with her friends. For Julie, for whom he'd been a
       sometimes surrogate father, not so much. Her mother wants 
       them to take a "teeny" detour to look for the irascible 
       retired surfer. Julie makes excuses. After all, she was 
       the one who decided she never wanted to see Lucky again. 
       Overruled in this as she is in much of her life, Julie and
       her friends detour to Lucky's latest scheme, Lucky's Beach
       Bar and Grill. They find it tucked away in a quaint 
       coastal town on the Delaware coast. With a crescent beach 
       of white sand, large waves, plenty of tanned young men, a 
       lively night life, it's a perfect beach getaway. eth and 
       Aggie see good times ahead, Julie is determined to get 
       through it as quickly as possible. But that will change as
       she gets to know Lucky's friends and confidantes. The 
       taciturn bartender, the loyal housekeeper, the local 
       fortune teller, the whole town shares a determination to 
       protect him. But from what? Soon Julie and her friends are
       swept up in an effort to save the town's--and Lucky's-- 
       most closely guarded secret. And Julie begins to see her 
       uncle in a new light. Julie Barlow has a few things to 
       learn about life--and love--and sacrifice. Her lesson 
       begins this summer at Lucky's Beach."--Publisher's
