Description

Set in the American South, this emotionally resonant novel follows two young people from sharply different circumstances whose friendship is tested by privilege, ambition, and the secrets that bind their families together. As they come of age, the promise of opportunity collides with the enduring consequences of class, loyalty, and betrayal. Insightful and atmospheric, the story explores how the bonds formed in youth can shape—and haunt—an entire life.
