Charleston.

Preston Parkers mother has invited you to her annual Linen & Bowtie party. Its sure to be a proverbial whos who of Southern society, or so youve been warned.

If convention holds, the men will wear linen suits and loud bowties, ribbing each other over which peacock has the greatest plume (God help the poor soul who wears a clip-on).

The women will fawn over each others tasteful choices of linen dress. Its all a very familiar scene.

Youve got linen. You loathe convention. You can procure an outrageous bowtie. And even though South Carolina law states you can be fined for keeping your horse in a bathtub, whos to say you cant flip the progressive script at Mrs. Parkers party?

No one. Thats who.
