A thirty-four-year-overdue library book turns up in a routine donation sort - and tucked inside it, a set of old letters that were never supposed to resurface at all. When the woman who found them disappears days later, Lexi Hartwell realizes Amberleigh Falls has been quietly keeping a secret since long before she was born, and that someone in town has spent thirty-four years making sure it stayed buried. With a summer reading program in full swing, a new deputy who's finally starting to trust her, and a truth that reaches all the way back to a fire two hours away, Lexi has to find out who's willing to protect the past at any cost - before the past finishes the job it started decades ago. Some names take thirty-four years to come due.
