They keep each otherâs secrets. They hide each otherâs lies.

Itâs the girls who Jess reaches out to because sheâs worried about her grandparents whoâve raised her since her mother disappeared, who Erin tells about her new business idea, who Melissa calls to say sheâs desperate to escape her toxic job.
But then Chantelle messages saying sheâs discovered her husband is having an affair. And everything changes.
Because then her husband is found dead... And only a few people knew about his secret.
Is it just a terrible accident? Or will someone stop at nothing to keep the girls of Larkspur Close safe and happy?
