    • The Seagrave sisters were about to come home to celebrate the fortieth anniversary of their parents' marriage. Instead, they are attending their father's funeral -- and their mother's trial for his murder. The Seagraves had been pillars of the community in their California seaside town, and their relationship never showed a hint of strain, at least not in public. Now, Alex, Kitty, and Daphne -- three sisters with very different lives -- must join together to understand what went wrong...and why. With this compelling novel, the New York Times bestselling author of Garden of Lies and Thorns of Truth presents her most powerful story yet, about the dark passions behind a picture-perfect family -- and the healing power of love.
