Book club domestic suspense set in a beautiful beachfront suburb, where tensions mount in the aftermath of a teenage girl's disappearance and three mothers must navigate their worst fears and darkest instincts to protect their families--and their own secrets.Beautiful people. Beautiful town. Beautiful liars. It's bonfire night in Killiney, an affluent coastal enclave where glass houses line the cliffs overlooking the sea and residents take pride in their carefully curated privacy. But this evening, even their tall iron gates can't keep them safe. While the adults gather on the beach at sunset, tipsy with alcohol and possibility, something different unfolds in the shadowy forest above. Their teenage children are engaged in a dangerous game, and one girl has stepped deeper into the trees and has not come back out. The next morning, when the mystery of her disappearance intensifies, three mothers must navigate their worst fears and darkest instincts to shield their children who were also present in the woods. But as tensions mount in the community, so too does the price of protecting their families. Because the women are each keeping secrets of their own--secrets that could unravel their entire privileged lives. And no matter the lies they tell themselves, the truth is never far behind . . .
