- Summary:
- Two elderly widows, Sulia and Louise Hunsenmeir, fight over Ed Tutweiler while Julia's daughter, Nickel, faces her own battles to save the local newspaper from corporate takeover and understand her own sexuality.
- In the sequel to her beloved Six of One, Rita Mae Brown returns with another witty tale of passion and rivalry in the small Southern town of Runnymede, Maryland. Newspaper editor Nickel Smith is scrambling to save the local paper from corporate extinction, even as she is engaged in an affair that would shock the town as much as it amazes Nickel herself. Meanwhile, her mother, Julia, and her aunt Louise, the infamous Hunsenmeir sisters, wћоѫve set the town on its ears for decades, keep an eagle eye on Nickel. No matter that ѕћеѫs a grown woman and that тћеуѫre going on ninety; they need someone to gossip about! Not even the townѫs weekly bingo games can keep Louise and Julia out of trouble when Ed Tutweiler Walters, an eligible newcomer, arrives in townاand has the sisters fighting over him like schoolgirls. A telling look at the foibles of modern relationships, Bingo is full of wisdom about the comforts, trials, and absurdities of small-town life [from the publisher's website].
