ABOUT THE AUTHOR

JUSTIN REED

Justin Reed lives in Westport, Connecticut, with his wife Caitlin and dog Walter. He grew up admiring Fitzgerald’s work. He often visits the Inn at Longshore for dinner and drinks; always stopping by the photographs showing the history of the F. E. Lewis estate; and loves late nights at Compo Beach, where on clear nights you can see a green light flashing across the water.

The green light is real. Compo Beach, on a clear night, looking toward Port Jefferson.
