Cassie George is barely staying above water as she works to get her doctorate and raise her daughter. But she stubbornly keeps swimming to prove a few bad decisions havenโt ruined her forever. Plus, itโs all a great excuse to stay away from
the small Oregon town she fled in shame years prior. But when she receives a call that the aunt who raised her has had a major health crisis, she knows itโs time to return.
Cassie is surprised to be more welcomed by the quirky seaside community than she expected, even if thereโs still tension between her and her former classmate Nora Milford. But she still canโt help feeling unsettled and is mystified by a
mysterious package that appears, full of typed pages that tell the story of an anonymous womanโs life. As her curiosity sends her on a journey toward truth, Cassie will discover that who she thought she was and what she wants for her life are both about to change.
