A compelling tale of edgy, small-town emotions, lingering
obsession, and romantic salvation.
Andrew, after many
years, returns to his hometown to attend his mother's
funeral. Planning to remain only a few days, he is drawn
into the tragic legacy of his childhood friend and beautiful
girl next door, Eden Close. An adopted child, Eden had
learned to avoid the mother who did not want her and to
please the father who did. She also aimed to please Andrew
and his friends, first by being one of the boys and later by
seducing them. Then one hot night, Andrew was awakened by
gunshots and piercing screams from the next farm: Mr. Close
had been killed and Eden blinded.
Now, seventeen
years later, Andrew begins to uncover the grisly story - to
unravel the layers of thwarted love between the husband,
wife, and tormented girl. And as the truth about Eden's past
comes to light, so too does Andrew's strange and binding
attachment to her reveal itself.
