It s been fifteen years since Lucy Sinclair saw her father. Fifteen years since she sat in a courtroom and watched him sentenced to life in prison for the murder of three victims. Now she’s back in Virginia to talk to the man who destroyed her life, never expecting that there’s more to the story of what happened that fateful night. An old flame, Ford Wagner makes his own return to their hometown, fleeing a marriage that seems destined for divorce. He’s wary of Lucy and none too pleased to find her digging into the past, but the more she discovers the more he finds himself reconsidering the truth behind the town’s sordid past. The problem is, there are plenty of those in North Hampton Beach who would prefer things stay quiet.
