The story centers on interconnected characters—Nora, Ruby, Cham, and Jason—whose relationships evolve as events unfold from early prologue stages into an extended sequence of revelations. Chapter-by-chapter momentum builds toward escalating conflict and emotional stakes, culminating in a reading experience supported by a reading group guide, an author conversation, acknowledgments, and author notes.","[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nCopyright © 2026 by Mallory Arnold  \nCover and internal design © 2026 by Sourcebooks Cover design by Sarah Brody/Sourcebooks  \nCover images © Karoliina Norontaus/Arcangel, LanaG/Shutterstock, Anabela88/Shutterstock Internal design by Laura Boren/Sourcebooks  \nTitle page image © Photographer/Getty Images  \nSourcebooks, Poisoned Pen Press, and the colophon are registered trademarks of Sourcebooks.  \nAll rights reserved.
