In the summer of 1922, Nikki Carraway moves from Minnesota to work as a bond salesman in New York. Nikki rents a house in West Egg, a suburb of New York on Long Island full of the "new rich" who have made their fortunes too recently to have built strong social connections. Nikki graduated from Yale and has connections in East Egg, a town where the people with social connections and "old" money live. One night Nick drives to East Egg to have dinner with her cousin, Daniel and his wife Tina Buchanan, a classmate of Nikki's at Yale. There, she meets Jordan Baker, a handsome and cynical professional golfer. Jordan tells Nikki that Tina is having an affair. Upon returning home from dinner, Nikki sees his mysterious neighbor Jayla Gatsby holding out her arms toward the Long Island Sound. Nikki looks out across the water, but sees only a green light blinking at the end of a dock on the far shore.
