Synopsis
In this twisting tale of loyalty, betrayal, and romance, two sisters must survive the wilds, if they can first survive each other--for fans of Pretty Little Liars and Gone Girl. "A masterfully written tale of survival, sisters, and love." --Julie Murphy, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Dumplin'
We sat at the edge of the ocean--my sister Henri and I--inches apart but not touching at all. We'd been so sure someone would find us by now. Emma had always orbited Henri, her fierce, magnetic queen bee of an older sister, and the two had always been best friends. Until something happened that wrecked them.
I'd trusted Henri more than I'd trusted myself. Wherever she told me to go, I'd follow. Then the unthinkable occurs--a watery nightmare off the dazzling coast. The girls wash up on shore, stranded. Their only companion is Alex, a troubled boy agonizing over his own secrets. Trapped in this gorgeous hell, Emma and Alex fall together as Emma and Henri fall catastrophically apart.
For the first time, I was afraid we'd die on this shore. To find their way home, the sisters must find their way back to each other. But there's no map for this--or anything. Can they survive the unearthing of the past and the upheaval of the present?
"A harrowing tale of sisters in need of rescue that's so real, it'll have you shaking sand from your hair and wiping tears off the page." --Stacey Lee, author of Under a Painted Sky
