It's supposed to be the best summer of Emily's life.
The wedding is three weeks out. The dress is ready. The island she once viewed with suspicion now feels like home. And then a young lobsterman goes missing off Piercehaven's coast—and the whole island holds its breath waiting for the tide, or the truth, to bring him back.
Emily has bigger things to worry about than a boat that didn't come home. Or does she? Because James has started acting strange—cagey about his evenings, vague about his whereabouts—right when Emily needs him to be steady more than ever.
She thought she'd finally figured this island out. She thought she knew the man she was about to spend her life with. But as the wedding countdown collides with a mystery no one on Piercehaven wants to talk about, Emily has to ask herself the question she hoped she'd never ask again: does she really know anyone here at all?
