The sight of the new Buick almost makes Heyward Jennings
physically ill.
At sixty years old, the prominent Atlanta banker can no longer
oblige himself to drive another of the sensible gray Buicks that
First Mercantile Security Bank provides its executives as company
cars. At the twilight of his career-and the brink of old
age-Heyward realizes his life, much like the dull gray cars, is
guarded and boring.
On impulse, Heyward retires and moves, with his wife Elizabeth,
to their beach house on the Atlantic coast. There, he begins to
experience the kind of thrills he's always avoided. Finished
playing by the rules, he creates a new life, where Buicks and
prudence are only a distant memory, and excitement and adventure
occasionally take place on the wrong side of the law.
With the encouragement of a well-endowed lesbian and his redneck
cousins, Heyward, in the face of a tragedy surrounding his best
friend, steps so far out of his careful and cautious ways that he
crosses a line-and soon realizes there's no way back.
