"Michael Linden--or just Linden to his preppy boarding school pals--doesn't belong in wealthy, storied Martha's Vineyard. But when his roommate, Jasper, invites him to spend the end of summer at his family's massive beachfront home, August House, Linden tries his best to fit in. Linden wouldn't call it lying, exactly. Though it turns out August House is full of liars. Then someone is found unconscious in Jasper's pool, and everyone has something to hide--Jasper; his beautiful twin sister, Eliza; their older brother, Wells; and their friends. The accident is written off as just that--an accident--but Linden begins to wonder... Enter: Holiday Proctor, Linden's childhood friend and the only person on the island who knows the truth about him. There's nothing Holiday loves more than a good mystery, and she's convinced there's a murderer on the Vineyard. The only question is...who?"--Dust jacket flap.
