Kevin Spacey case brings attention to Nantucket – where many go to avoid spotlight
Actor due in courtroom to be arraigned on felony charges for an alleged sexual assault against a busboy at a restaurant in 2016
The tiny, fish-hook shaped island of Nantucket feels like a place separated from America by place and time. There are no traffic lights. You won’t find a McDonalds, CVS or any other chain store ubiquitous across the US. In its quiet and partially cobblestoned downtown, some leave their cars running while they go into shops. In winter, the silence is only broken by church bells and the sound of a foghorn.
