It’s been over a decade since renowned author Beckett Ryan set foot in her bleak childhood hometown on the southern coast of England.

Of course, the locals didn’t really know her parents. Nobody did. Then a warm welcome emerges from the sea of cold faces: Leanne. Beckett’s best friend when they were younger, and now a super-fan. Only… Beckett is pretty sure she’s never met her before in her life.
