Lyndie St. James is thrilled that her best friend, Elle, is getting married. But she is unprepared for the emotional storm of the wedding week and of returning to her childhood summer home of Sweethaven, Michigan. It's not only the tragic death of her childhood friend Cassie that has haunted her for ten years, it's the other secrets she's buried that have kept her from moving on. Cassie's family, still struggling with the loss, have been drifting further and further apart. And Elle herself, the last to see Cassie alive, carries an impossible burden of guilt. Now each of them has a choice: to reveal the truths of that night or continue to live in its shadow. -- adapted from back cover
