Writer Tyler Jones is looking forward to spending time with her five college buddies at a twentieth anniversary reunion in the middle of Puget Sound. However, just after arriving at the deserted island, a severe storm traps the six women with no immediate escape. Tyler soon locates a male corpse of someone she does not recognize, but her friends do.
Anyone of them could be a murderess and each suspect the others. The women begin to share their pasts and their secrets as they open up to one another and begin to trust each other.
The third Tyler Jones novel is a strange tale that will either be recognized by readers as stretching the envelop or being a major failure. The six characters are all interesting with each openly discussing their sexual preference among other things. Their interrelationships are very interesting. However, many fans will be frustrated because the story never reaches a definiitive conclusion.
