Description
When teenager Allison Glenn is sent to prison for a heinous crime, she leaves behind her reputation as the town's golden girl forever. Her friends turn on her. Even her own parents have denied her existence. It's her sister, Brynn--shy, quiet Brynn--who carries the burden of what really happened that night. All she wants is to forget Allison and the past that haunts her.
But then Allison is released to a halfway house and is more determined than ever to speak with her estranged sister. Now their silence is focused on one little boy. And if the truth is revealed, the consequences will be unimaginable for the adoptive mother who loves him, the girl who tried to protect him and the two sisters who hold the key to all that is hidden.
