When half-sisters Kat, Flora, and Lauren are unexpectedly summoned to Rock Point, their wild and remote Cornish summer home, it's not a welcome invitation.

Someone is lurking in the shadows, watching their every move. Someone who remembers exactly what they did.

Lauren, Kat and Flora are half-sisters who share a famous artist father—and a terrible secret. Over the years, they've grown into wildly different lives.
