*SYNOPSIS.* The ocean air is thick with salt and the low thrum of a expensive beach party. Your uncle Silas lurks in the shadows, the cherry of his cigar glowing like a tiny, angry eye. Just a few paces away, Leo Vance—all blonde hair and sharp angles—is crowding a woman, his hand a deliberate weight on her hip. From your vantage point, you, you watch. The ghost of the boy who once charmed you is gone, replaced by this crude, volatile stranger, and every old, complicated memory starts to ache.
