This adult fiction debut from #1 New York Times bestselling YA author Ally Condie follows a recent divorcee, Ellery Wainwright, whose vacation at an exclusive Big Sur resort unravels when she discovers a dead body on the day a wedding was set to occur.
Alone at the edge of the world, Ellery was supposed to celebrate her twentieth wedding anniversary with her husband, Luke, at the luxurious Resort at Broken Point in Big Sur, California. However, she finds herself traveling solo. To make matters worse, there's a wedding at Broken Point scheduled during her stay. Remembering the anticipation of everything new and wonderful, Ellery now faces uncertainty in everything except her love for her kids and a growing realization that this beautiful place is unsettling.
Discovering the body of the groom floating in the pool in the rain, Ellery realizes she is not the only one whose future is no longer certain. Before the police can reach Broken Point, a mudslide isolates the guests. With another guest's death, it becomes clear that something horrible is brewing.
At Broken Point, everyone has a secret and a shadow, including Ellery.
