Wayland Town Crier 10/26/12: Kickoff party for Wayland resident's latest novel. Wayland resident Juliette Fay’s third and latest novel, The Shortest Way Home, will be released on Tuesday, October 30 with a kickoff party at Barnes & Noble in Framingham on Route 9 starting at 7pm. The novel is set in the fictional MetroWest town of Belham. With its town beach and nearby Scout House on the shores of Lake Pequot and a watering hole called the Palace (“The Pal” for short), Belham bears more than a passing resemblance to Wayland, where Fay lives with her husband and four children.
