Ivy, Cam, and Ariana have been friends for their whole lives. The three of them grew up on idyllic Mariners Island, which drew large numbers of tourists during the summer, but one summer stood out from the rest. Sixteen-year-old Cam was accused of kidnapping Emily, a twelve-year-old girl who was visiting the island that summer. Cam narrowly escaped the accusation when Ivy and Ariana lied and provided him with a much-needed alibi. Flash forward, Ivy and Cam still live on the island. Ivy runs her family-owned library while Cam owns a successful architecture company. Ariana's unrequited love for Cam and the lie she told to help him made her leave the island as soon as she could, until new information about Emily emerged. The three friends reunite and Ivy and Ariana grapple with the decision to stand by Cam and their lie or to finally come clean. Novak once again demonstrates her unique skills of creating well-crafted characters and an enticing plot including themes of love, redemption, and friendship.
