Blow Out Summer

Surf, party, and romance take center stage in the breezy novel Blow Out Summer, as a group of local surfers in Huntington Beach, California, enjoy a summertime of hanging out and having fun. Their story takes place in the mid 1970s, when no one was paying much attention to the drugs being brought into California at an alarming rate. But Dee Dee's eyes are about to be opened. Dee Dee lives in a very well-to-do area and is introduced to social drug experimentation and drug trafficking while maintaining a normal family life. She and her friends enjoy the surf up and down the coast of California. Her friends run the gamut from the very wealthy to beach bums she met at the pier. Dee Dee's lazy summer is spent under beautiful sunny days with slow drifting clouds and perfect barrel waves. But the ups and downs in her relationships and the dangers of dabbling in drugs ultimately force her a decision that will change her life. Denise Ann Stock's first book is based on her research of drug trafficking in the mid '70s. She grew up in Huntington Beach, California, the Surf Capital of the continental United States, and moved to Jacksonville, Florida, after her marriage.
