With law school and her whole life ahead of her, Joey plans to spend the summer with her boyfriend Astor at his seemingly perfect family home. But beneath all the affluent perfection lies a dark, deadly rot... something all the locals live in quiet fear of.
As summer lingers, Joey uncovers the macabre history of Crestfall Bluffs, and the ruthlessness and secrecy lying in wait behind the idyllic lives of the one percent. Who can Joey save? Who wants to be saved? And can she even survive to tell the tale?
Still uncertain about what she saw in Pip’s office, Joey confides in Kitty...but Kitty’s response only confuses her more, leaving Joey with no choice but to play along with the family.
Until Fourth of July, when at a party Joey suspects what she thought she saw then is happening again.
Can Joey come to terms with what is really happening in Crestfall Bluffs… and can she still walk away alive?
