Synopsis
"Human nature," says Danny Hanfield, "is the default to rational thought." Reason is secondary for Cornelia Ferndale when her husband is killed by the Sandinistas. She seeks vengeance by using her personal wealth to support the Contras—and pays the price. Jason Oberon, part-time college student and full-time troublemaker, earns the title of suspect for spray-painting "Death Squad" on the door of an empty blood-stained room. Some call it murder, but Jake and Julie Crampton call it opportunity—to promote their writers’ conference at the prestigious Dunes Retreat Center.
Welcome to the Dunes is a light-hearted and good natured spoof of writers’ conferences, a funny and compelling mystery, a witty and sensitive romance, and a thumbnail review of news events in the 1980s.
