      Out of love. Out of protection. Out of fear. Everyone has a reason to lie. Everyone in Raleigh, North Carolina, is talking about Norah Ramsey, the single mother accused of being a suburban madam. But Norah's not the only one keeping secrets. After her mother's arrest, Norah's teenage daughter, Violet, is devastated and alone. She has no one to turn to until her grandmother Polly arrives. Polly, long estranged from Norah, is running from her own troubles. Down the street, Bess, once Norah's best friend, desperately tries to hide secrets while Casey, Bess's daughter, flees college after a traumatic event, only to find that home isn't the safe haven she expected. And Nico, the detective who has doggedly pursued Norah Ramsey in hopes that she will lead him to his missing brother, is drawn further into these women's lives while facing his own domestic disturbance. Scandal has brought each of them to a crossroads. Now, as they delve into Norah's secrets, they must come to terms with secrets of their own--ones that still have the power to hurt or to heal.

      Ein schicksalhafter Sommer, der fatale Lügen und lang gehütete Geheimnisse ans Licht bringt. Bis jetzt war Sycamore Glen die perfekte amerikanische behütete Kinder, Familien, die sich ihr ganzes Leben lang kennen, freundliche Nachbarn, die sich gegenseitig helfen. Doch als der Sommer anbricht, bekommt die schöne Fassade plötzlich Risse. Erst verschwindet ein kleines Mädchen spurlos. Dann ertrinkt um ein Haar vor den Augen aller ein Junge im Pool, dem Mittelpunkt des sonst so heiteren Gemeinschaftslebens. Und schließlich kehrt eine junge Frau mit ihren beiden Töchtern aus dem Norden zurück. Warum ist Jencey damals nach der High School aus Sycamore Glen geflohen und wo steckt jetzt eigentlich ihr Ehemann? Allmählich beginnen sich die Bewohner immer mehr in dem Lügennetz zu verfangen, das sich seit Jahren von Gartenzaun zu Gartenzaun entsponnen hat.
