#1 New York Times bestselling author Nelson DeMille delivers the long-awaited follow-up to his classic novel The Gold Coast.
When John Sutter's aristocratic wife killed her mafia don lover, John left America and set out in his sailboat on a three-year journey around the world, eventually settling in London. Now, ten years later, he has come home to the Gold Coast, that stretch of land on the North Shore of Long Island that once held the greatest concentration of wealth and power in America, to attend the imminent funeral of an old family servant. Taking up temporary residence in the gatehouse of Stanhope Hall, John finds himself living only a quarter of a mile from Susan who has also returned to Long Island. But Susan isn't the only person from John's past who has reemerged: Though Frank Bellarosa, infamous Mafia don and Susan's ex-lover, is long dead, his son, Anthony, is alive and well, and intent on two missions: Drawing John back into the violent world of the Bellarosa family, and exacting revenge on his father's murderer--Susan Sutter. At the same time, John and Susan's mutual attraction resurfaces and old passions begin to reignite, and John finds himself pulled deeper into a familiar web of seduction and betrayal. In THE GATE HOUSE, acclaimed author Nelson Demille brings us back to that fabled spot on the North Shore -- a place where past, present, and future collides with often unexpected results.
big disappoinment
| Customer Rating: | | doesn't even deserve one star... found myself wishing the mob would whack the ex wife ... characters are unbelievably wooden, stiff language, shallow - only enjoyable thing about the book (besides that it FINALLY ends) is the brief flashes of sarcastic humor from the main character I have enjoyed in other Demille books. If you are a Demille fan or have not tried him yet - skip this book, go to one of his earlier books like Plum Island or earlier for beginners, longtime readers - wait for his next one and hope for a better one next time. |
Demille is back on top
| Customer Rating: | | Nelson Demille has always been at the top of my reading list, but with his last, Firefall, I thought he had "lost it." But he came roaring back with the Gatehouse. Having read and been fascinated by the original Gold Coast, I was concerned this couldn't measure up. But Demille cleverly weaves in enough from the past to make this 700 word sequel compelling from beginning to...........well, I haven't quite finished it, but I almost hate to because it is so good. |

| Customer Rating: | | my wife and I are big DeMille fans and this book is no different,the guys got majic in his finger tipsThe Gate House |
What is this?
| Customer Rating: | | I've read a number of good books by this author, but I couldn't figure this one out. It's not a thriller or a mystery or a detective story. It is long ramblings by a man trying to describe how he still loves a women who cheated on him and then killed her lover. Along the way there are many philosphical ramblings about life and love in the upper classes.I guess it's an upper class love story. I didn't like it! |
DeMille Fan Disappointed in Overly Long Book with Little Spark
| Customer Rating: | | I've read most of N. DeMille's books over the years, and esp. loved the The Gold Coast. While it's sequel (?), The Gate House, has a fairly strong start (up to p.140 or so) and end (the final 30 pages), the overly long vast middle section (500 pages or so) could have profitably been edited down to 200 pages or so to create a vastly more satisfying book. |
