Summary: Complex Tale of Sex, Greed and Murder in a Small Town...
Review: Very different from what I've read. This is truly a complex tale filled with heart-pounding suspense and a serious whodunnit atmosphere that will keep you guessing.
There is some graphic violence and gritty sex scenes, but the story would not be the same without it.
A tightly woven tale about three very different sisters summoned to their childhood home in a tiny town in Oregon by the lake to their father who is about to run for governor but needs to ask them about a deep secret the sisters have been keeping between them for the past 16 years.
The eldest sister Miranda is an attorney and controls the three sisters and is the main keeper of the 'secret'.
Claire is the middle child who is recently divorced and has two children. She dreads coming back here to where that one summer so long ago changed her life.
Tessa is the youngest and the 'wild child'. Not really doing anything with her life except drinking and sleeping around, she is downright belligerant.
But that summer back in 1980 keeps them bonded and silent and afraid.
Throw in the badboy across the lake Kane and a prominant family who battled with the them all and a mysterious set of murders that one summer and you have a twisted and complex tale that will keep you flipping the pages earnestly and still stunned each time something comes to light.
Ms. Jackson begins with the present(1996), then backtracks to that fateful summer of 1980 where it all began and then back again, giving us a very detailed and frightening look into this small town's secrets. I was done with this book in a matter of hours. It is that good. A keeper!Tracy Talley~@
