Synopsis

❝ You know, I have the feeling I'm gonna marry you someday, Oak.❞

- What would you do if you found out murder ran through your own blood?

And that, that blood was going to be the reason for the island's biggest case in the history of its existence.

Oakley Clifton didn't have any of this in her plans, nor did she have falling in love in the making.

But the Outer Banks is full of surprises, and when it comes down to it, most of them turn out to be hunting and unfinished- urging that one group of troubled teens to finish what the island never did.

❝This island is just full of surprises. . . ❞

And when they do. . .

Loss and recovery stop sounding so hard to reach.

Love and pain make a home in the children's hearts.

Death becomes one's biggest enemies.


And the story just begins.
