Eddie nearly decides to skip the two houses he has on Lincoln Circle. They, like the Hulbert Avenue house, are older homes in need of serious updating. Eddie has shown both of the Lincoln Circle homes before. They have a certain charm; they’re quintessential Nantucket summer cottages, nothing flashy or newfangled about them. Masha won’t be impressed… but Eddie will show them anyway, if only for a comparison to the bigger estates he has in store for the Christys out in Wauwinet, Squam, and Shimmo.

The first Lincoln Circle home has a screened-in porch with a fireplace, a charming feature that Eddie shows off right away.

“Nice,” Masha agrees. However, she sniffs at the kitchen with its particle-board cabinets and drop-in stainless steel sink. “Our kitchen in East Boston is nicer than this,” she says. “How much did you say this house costs?”

“Twelve point three million,” Eddie says. “Again, you’re paying for the address. And this house has full water views from the second floor.”

“It feels like a rip-off,” Masha says.

“Okay,” Eddie says. He decides to cut his losses and skip the second listing on Lincoln Circle. He should have realized that the Christys would want a house with all the bells and whistles, a house that feels like it’s worth twelve million dollars. “Time for something different. I can assure you, the next house I show you will be much, much more to your liking.”

“I liked the inn,” Masha says.

Raja puts a hand on Eddie’s shoulder and gives him a silent shake of the head. The meaning is unmistakable: they are not buying an inn.
