Synopsis: A riveting tale of two sisters and the legacy of the secrets between them, from New York Times bestselling author, Heather Gudenkauf.
When teenager Allison Glenn is sent to prison for a heinous crime, she leaves behind her reputation as Linden Falls’s golden girl forever. Her parents deny the existence of their once-perfect child. Her former friends exult her downfall. Her sister, Brynn, faces whispered rumors every day in the hallways of their small Iowa high school. It’s Brynn—shy, quiet Brynn—who carries the burden of what really happened that night. All she wants is to forget Allison and the past that haunts her.
But then Allison is released to a halfway house, and is more determined than ever to speak with her estranged sister. The key to the secrets of their past now rests with one little boy. And if the truth is revealed, the consequences could change all of their lives forever.
