The Flax women reunite in their old hometown in this long-awaited sequel to Mermaids, the novel that became the cult-classic movie starring Cher, Winona Ryder and Christina Ricci. Charlotte Flax is all grown up now, with a grown son of her own. But her heart still belongs to the man she fell in love with at age 14 when Charlotte, her sister and her mother lived in a house next to a convent in Grove, Massachusetts. They moved on after a year- Mrs. Flax never stayed anywhere long. But it was Charlotte's favorite house, so when she hears it's for rent, she moves back and decides to bring the family together for Mrs. Flax's birthday. There are complications and suprises, of course. This is the Flax family, after all. For all three women, the gathering is a reunion they'll never forget.
