Detective Andrea Stuart thought her weeklong escape to the quiet shores of Jamestown would be a time to rest. But a blocked call in the early hours of the morning pulls her back into a world she’s been trying to leave behind --- and into a case no one wants her to solve. Hope Philbrick, heir to one of Rhode Island’s most powerful families, has fallen to her death from a seaside cliff after her lavish pre-wedding celebration. Everyone says it was an accident. Her fiancé is grieving. The family wants silence. And Andrea has been told, in no uncertain terms, to keep her head down and follow orders. But something about the scene doesn't sit right. The deeper she digs, the more the glittering façade of privilege cracks. To uncover the truth, Andrea must risk her career --- and confront a haunting past she’s never truly escaped.
