Official synopsis Publisher
Olivia McAfee’s picture-perfect life – living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising their beautiful son, Asher – was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined that she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in. Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mum relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, they both hope it will be a fresh start. And for just a short while, these new beginnings are exactly what Olivia and Lily need. Their paths cross when Asher falls for the new girl in school, and Lily can’t help but fall for him, too. With Ash, she feels happy for the first time. Yet she wonders if she can trust him completely. Then one day, Olivia receives a phone call – Lily is dead, and Asher is being questioned by the police. Olivia is adamant that her son is innocent. But she would be lying if she didn’t acknowledge the flashes of his father’s temper in Ash, and as the case against him unfolds, she realises he’s hidden more than he’s shared with her.
