____________________________________________________________

Seventeen-year-old Lily has a loving, normal family. So why does it suddenly feel like secrets are stirring? Like Mama is about to crack?

As a storm of memories builds over one stifling summer, Lily must recast everything. What if her house isn’t a home – but a prison? What if her mother isn’t a protector – but a monster . . .

Bold, beautifully told, and bound to keep you turning this pages, this is an unforgettable story about a family gone bad . . .
