Everyone in Tenneys Harbor knows about the Garrison tragedy. How an unexplained fire ravaged their house, killing four of the five family members. But what people dont know is who did it.All fingers point at Pearl Haskins father, who was the caretaker of the property, but Pearl just doesnt believe it. Leave it to a town of rich people to blame the help.With her disgraced father now trying to find work in between booze benders, Pearls future doesnt hold much more than waiting tables at the local country club, where the wealthy come to flaunt their money and spread their gossip. This year, Tristan, the last surviving Garrison, and his group of affluent and arrogant friends have made a point of sitting in Pearls section. Though shes repulsed by most of them, Tristans quiet sadness and somber demeanor have her rethinking her judgments.Befriending the boys could mean getting closer to the truth, clearing her fathers name, and giving Tristan the closure he seems to be searching for.But it could also trap Pearl in a sinister web of secrets, lies, and betrayals that would leave no life unchangedif it doesnt take hers first.
