Faith finds the extravagant ring on the first day of what is to be a summer of luxury. David Clarke, scion of a billionaire family and her boyfriend, has brought her to his “cottage” for the season on pictersque Hadley Island. Marriage admittedly wasn’t Faith’s plan, but the luxury is hard to resist, especially for someone like her.
But beneath Hadley Island’s sun-soaked glamour lie old betrayals and buried secrets: a man cast out and living alone at sea’s edge, and David’s childhood friends—two girls, one who died at his family’s Fourth of July party, and another who fled to New York, never to be seen again. When another young woman goes missing, it becomes clear that while the wealthy love Hadley Island for its seclusion, small communities never forget, and bodies long thought gone have a nasty habit of returning with the tide.
