​Publication date: March 2020

Restaurant owner Dinah is roped into Mirelle’s plan for revenge over her husband’s affair, while Mirelle tries to aid Dinah’s recovery from the death of her husband by pushing her toward Mark Burdette, the local newspaper critic (one might get a good restaurant review out of that, after all). The restaurant’s chef and hostess, Rob and Kelly Carvey, are in a constant state of chaotic marital warfare, and Dinah is forced to defend her business–and herself.
​
The arrival of Gahan Godfrey, old friend and director, adds further frenzied complications, as he prepares the theater debut: Dinah’s favorite play, Blithe Spirit. Everything at Galloway’s is going straight to hell, until the unexpected forces Dinah to face the seriousness beneath the farce.

Praise

“Love, heartbreak, betrayal, revenge and unrequited love simmer throughout the novel — also secrets. Dinah’s heart is the soul of the story, and in Oleson’s hands, readers are treated to truths that both mark and mar the efforts of people attempting to make loving commitments to one another. The novel reads like some madcap play seen in a summer theatre production. But it lays bare the potential cost of withholding the heart’s yearning to be whole.” Frank O Smith, Maine Sunday Telegram
​


“It’s the tumbling, mostly funny, sometimes sad story of the chaotic life of restaurant owner Dinah Galloway. Cow Palace does not have the gothic feel of Oleson’s earlier books. But it has some loose parallels in mood and characterization to Portland novelist Agnes Bushell’s “The House on Perry Street.” — Dana Wilde, centralmaine.com
