Ah, retirement! And on the edge of a thriving university town, where one can find leisure, stimulating companionship, culture. New residents of Carolina Woods are encouraged by the managers, Beatrice Charon and Gretchen Beauxreves, to take long, slow walks in the woods from which the community derives its name. But these woods are something special, for at Carolina Woods, 'where you live your dreams,' life is a cross between Dante’s Inferno and the Hades of Greek mythology. It is a realm of mirth, danger, sensuality, madness... and just deserts. It can also be a lot of fun! Won’t you come in?
