After a shocking death at a luxurious Italian resort, two very
different women must question everything--and everyone--they love in
order to untangle truth from lies in this twisty, captivating read.
One year ago, Leah's feisty 21-year-old niece, Amy, mysteriously drowned
in the beautiful lake near her family-owned resort in Northern Italy.
Now, Leah's grief has caught up with her, and she decides to return to
Lake Garda for the first time since Amy's death. What she finds upon her
arrival shocks her--her sister, brother-in-law, and surviving niece,
Olivia, seem to have erased all memories of Amy, and fought to have her
death declared an accidental drowning, despite murky circumstances. Leah
knows she must look beyond the resort's beautiful façade and uncover
what truly happened to Amy, even if her digging places both her family
ties and her very life in danger.
Meanwhile, in Central England, thirtysomething Joanna is recovering from
a surprising break-up when she is swept off her feet by a handsome
bartender. But when she learns that he is on the run from something in
his past, and that their meeting may not have been a coincidence, Joanna
realized that he may just a bit too good to be true.
What follows is a propulsive cat-and mouse game set against the Italian
lakeside as the two seemingly-unconnected women are caught up in a
dangerous conspiracy.
