About this listen
We Were Liars meets Call Me By Your Name in this lyrical and quintessential coming-of-age tale about a summer when everything changes, from Meg Rosoff, best-selling author of the iconic novel How I Live Now.
This is the story of one family, one dreamy summer....
In a holiday house by the sea, our watchful narrator sees everything, including many things they shouldn't, as their brother and sisters, parents, and older cousins fill hot days with wine and games and planning a wedding. Enter two brothers: irresistible, charming, languidly sexy Kit and surly, silent Hugo. Suddenly there's a serpent in this paradise - and the consequences will be devastating.

“Printz Award-winner Rosoff has written an absolutely remarkable coming-of-age story.... The effort is a joy, just like this unforgettable novel, the first of a planned, summer-themed trio.” (Booklist, starred review)
"Through an unnamed, ungendered teen’s sharp eye and knowing narration, Rosoff tells a dryly humorous story of summer and love gone awry.” (Publishers Weekly)
"There’s enough tension here that readers may hope for a ramp-up into full thriller.” (Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books, starred review)
