Secrets. Lies. Inheritance. Family first - always. Right?

The Story family are the envy of their neighbours: owners of the largest property on their East Coast island, they are rich, beautiful and glamorous. Until it all falls apart. The four children are suddenly dropped by their mom with a single sentence:

You know what you did.

They never hear from her again.

Years later, when 18-year-old cousins Aubrey, Milly and Jonah Story receive a mysterious invitation to spend the summer at their grandmother''s resort, they have no choice but to follow their curiosity and meet the woman who''s been such an enigma their entire lives.

This summer, the teenagers are determined to discover the truth at the heart of their family. But some secrets are better left alone . . .

''A twisty, enthralling thriller.'' Daily Mail
