From the outside, the house that Mia Howard grew up in looks just as it always did—a picturesque slice of New England history, complete with white clapboards and black shutters. Mia’s husband, Evan, loves everything about it, and for his sake, Mia tries to ignore her unease about starting over in her childhood home in Allerton. But the locked bedroom upstairs is a constant reminder of the past. It’s the room that once belonged to Mia’s sister, Tess.
Mia wasn’t with Tess on the night she died, but Josie Cantrell was. Josie and Tess were with their four best friends at the local cemetery, partying, drinking, sharing stories and confessions. Sharing too much. Somehow, Tess fell down a slope and hit her head on a marker—a terrible accident in a town that had already seen too many tragedies. Now, seeing Mia again unnerves Josie, stirring up guilt she’s never quite been able to quell, and lingering questions about what really happened in Tess’s final moments.
Josie isn’t the only one unsettled by Mia’s return. There are strange new “accidents” and threatening messages—targeting Josie, Tess’s remaining friends, and Mia, too. Even as Mia is compelled to find out more about her sister’s death, she fears what she’s about to discover. Because the truth about Tess is only part of a tangled, terrifying story that may change everything she and Josie believe about the past and the people closest to them . . .
