Is it her dream job by the sea or a fatal mistake?
My old life is over. So when I’m offered a job at a picture-perfect bookstore by the sea, I grab my chance at a fresh start.
At first, I'm smitten. A seaside town in Maine. Owners who are pillars of the community. Endless books to read and my own cozy room in the attic. It’s the kind of storybook opportunity that shouldn't come to someone like me.
Then the unwritten rules appear. The names that can’t be spoken, the questions I’m not allowed to ask. About the family’s daughter. And the strange patch of soft, green grass in the otherwise sun-burnt yard. The nights I can’t quite remember…
Maybe I’m just overreacting. And maybe, something is wrong. Like, really wrong. My old life and my new one seem to blur into each other. But everyone insists this place is better for me…
