Synopsis
The newest, riveting summer suspense by the author of THE BLOCK PARTY, Jamie Day.
The Bishop sisters are an eccentric ensemble, each with a sordid past and guarded secrets. When the three reunite at The Precipice--their late father's iconic coastal Maine hotel--they come to claim what is rightfully theirs. But their inheritance exacts a lethal toll.
At the center of it all stands the hotel's chambermaid, Charley Kelley--a bright, resilient, working-class girl in desperate straits. Down to her last nickel and the sole caregiver for her ailing grandmother, Charley must find the cash to support them both, but her cleaning job isn't going to cover the bills.
The arrival of the Bishop sisters could spell disaster for Charley, especially if they find the guest she's hiding in one of the rooms in exchange for the money her grandmother urgently needs.
But there's no turning back now. Despite threats of the worst hurricane Maine has seen in decades, everyone is checking in this weekend, but not all of them will be checking out.
