Former foster child Lexi Baill arrives in a close-knit Washington community hoping for stability and finds it with twins Mia and Zach Farraday. Mia becomes her closest friend, while Zach’s friendship develops into first love. Their mother Jude welcomes Lexi but remains intensely protective of her children as the three teenagers approach graduation and the independence that follows it.
One reckless decision after a party results in a fatal accident and divides the survivors through grief, guilt, imprisonment and blame. Over the following years, Lexi and the Farradays must live with consequences that cannot be undone. The novel examines parental fear, adolescent loyalty and the unequal judgments placed on those involved in a tragedy, asking whether responsibility can coexist with forgiveness.
