Chapter Overview

Description

Belly has always counted her life in summers at Cousins Beach with Conrad, Jeremiah, and Susannah. But this year, Susannah is gone, Conrad has disappeared from summer school, and the Fisher house is suddenly up for sale. When Jeremiah calls, scared and angry, Belly says yes before she can talk herself out of it. Together they drive toward the ocean, toward the place that made them, to find Conrad and a way forward. What they uncover are old promises, new fault lines, and a choice that could redraw every map Belly’s ever lived by. This is a tender, messy, aching story about first love, brotherhood, and the stubborn hope that summer might still be worth saving.
