Laurel and her sister, Thalia, grew up in what looked like a typical blue-collar home. But the Grays have long been hiding a skeleton in their closet. While Laurel built her “perfect” life, Thalia became an actress with a capital A, a woman who doesn’t fit in Laurel’s tidy world. Now Molly can’t rest until someone learns her secrets. Laurel turns to her sister, and together they begin a journey that will unearth their family’s history, the true state of Laurel’s marriage, and what really happened to the girl who stopped swimming.
“A vivid, smartly calibrated achievement . . . a ghost story, family psychodrama, and murder mystery all in one.”—Entertainment Weekly
“A breakthrough novel . . . full of unexpected twists . . . beautifully balances between magical and realist fiction and [close] in tone and voice to Alice Sebold’s The Lovely Bones or Richard Ford’s Frank Bascombe trilogy.”—Atlanta Journal-Constitution
“A great tale . . . builds to an exciting and violent ending, one that surprises.”—USA Today
