A young woman attempting to solve a decades-old disappearance in the French Alps finds herself entangled in a web of privilege and lies—and quickly realizes that even buried secrets can have deadly consequences, from the bestselling author of the Reese's Book Club pick Society of Lies.

How much of our identity is inherited, and can we ever truly break free?

Zoe Li didn’t imagine her life so bleak at twenty-two: After graduating with a degree in English from NYU, Zoe returned home to help her mother and now works at a country club café.

But one day, her luck takes a turn for the better when a handsome stranger comes into the café. They strike up a conversation, and Zoe learns that he works for her favorite director, Simone Rothwell.

After Zoe becomes Simone’s new assistant, she thinks it is an opportunity of a lifetime. But she soons learns that Simone had her own reasons for hiring her: When Zoe's mother was eighteen, she and Simone took a trip to the French Alps with a group of friends, and one of the friends never returned.

While investigating the mystery in her mother’s past, Zoe finds harrowing clues that make her question everything she thought she knew about her family—and the Rothwells.

As tensions in the house rise to a breaking point, Zoe realizes she's in danger and must escape before she, too, is permanently entangled in the Rothwells' lives. Embroiled in a world of wealth and priviledge, where money can hide even the darkest secrets, Zoe has to learn who to trust and how to break from the past in order to survive.
