THE COMPELLING MYSTERY FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE MARRIAGE PACT
A murdered girl. A devastating betrayal. A family full of secrets...
All her life Ellie Enderlin had been known as Lila's sister - until the day Lila, a top math student at Stanford, was murdered, and the shape of their family changed forever. Twenty years later, Ellie is a professional coffee buyer who has never put down roots. When, in a chance meeting, she comes into possession of the notebook that Lila carried everywhere, Ellie returns home to finally discover the truth about her sister's death - a search that will lead her to Lila's secret lover, to the motives and fate of a man who profited from their family's grief, and ultimately to the deepest secrets even sisters keep from each other.
