About this ebook
A young woman desperate to find answers about her mother's past uncovers more than she bargained for in this sun-soaked, glittering thriller from the bestselling authors of Happy Wife and Perfect Life.
Autumn Kensington has perfected the art of moving through spaces unnoticed. People hand her empty drinks and crumpled cocktail napkins while discussing their deepest regrets without thinking twice. It’s a crucial skill for a party planner in the social scene of Winter Park, Florida, where secrets lurk around every corner. And Autumn is on the hunt for one thing—discovering her mother’s connection to a mysterious death in Winter Park thirty years ago.
When she’s put in charge of planning an event that will be the talk of the town, Autumn sees an opportunity to get to the bottom of the decades-long mystery. But what she finds sheds an entirely new light on the mother she thought she knew—and reveals that there are people in this town who will go to any length to ensure their secrets stay buried.
