Return to Peyton Place by Grace Metalious Book PDF Summary

Few things change in a small town like Peyton Place, but the past has a tendency to rear its ugly head at the most inconvenient times. Return to Peyton Place reunites the reader with Allison MacKenzie, now a successful writer in New York, and working on her debut novel; her mother Constance, now happily married; and her friend Selena Cross, free from the torments of her abusive step father. All three women are, by any reasonable standard, happy. But things become complicated when Allison’s novel, based heavily on the town—and not in a flattering way—attracts the ire of their friends and neighbours. Return to Peyton Place was adapted into a daytime soap opera and two made-for-television films. Penguin Random House Canada is proud to bring you classic works of literature in e-book form, with the highest quality production values.
