This tells the story of Luca from the beautiful tranquil island of Parris but appearances can be deceptive. The island holds many secrets, the most notable is the unsolved deaths of young girls, the most recent being Luca's best friend Polly, and it still remains unsolved.
The house of Polly's family becomes a home once again and Luca must deal with someone new living in the house. The girl moving in soon becomes close to her and they find they had a bond to each other and with Naomi's help that try to uncover what has happened on the island in the pasta as well as the recent death of Luca's sister.
The girls delve into the secrets of the island and the story also deals with the emotions they feel for one another.
The author sets a nice place, and with the short chapters, it helps to set a picture of not only the island but the writing evokes feelings for the characters.
