The ties between women can run as deep as the ocean--but so can their secrets.
For 20 years, Kayla, Antoinette and Val have performed their own special summer ritual. Once a year, the old friends put aside their daily, separate lives to drink champagne, swap stories and swim naked under the Nantucket stars. But on one of those bonding nights, one of their trio swims out from the shore and doesn't return.
After the surviving friends emerge from their grief, they realize that the repercussions of their loss go far beyond their little circle, and they begin to uncover layers of secrets--and their connections to each other--that were never revealed on the beach. What has made their friendship strong now has the power to destroy--their marriages, families, even themselves.
This is the first Elin Hilderbrand book I have ever read. I was in need of a book to get me until other book order arrived. I really enjoyed this story, couldn't put it down. I loved the way many characters had a chapter or more to get the story from several different views. As soon as I finished this book I ordered another of her books and hope to be as satisfied with the new one as I was with this one.
This was a good read. It's probably not Elin's best book, and I was able to put it down without much trouble, but I enjoyed it. Well written, and entertaining.
