Just from reading the first two chapters, it's evident that there's going to be a lot of angst and emotions.
Ruthie is still besotted with her ex-husband, Mike, and they are still partners over the ownership of a beach home that Mike inherited and which now stands in for their daughter's, Jem, college fund.
The lovely home is rented every summer in order for Ruthie and Jem to be able to afford living in it the other nine months of the year. The new summer tenant, Adeline, comes off as untrustworthy from her very first conversation. It tortures my heart to ponder what evil she is going to throw Ruthie's way.
