The wealthy, seemingly flawless Sinclair family spends every summer on their private island, a tradition of sun-drenched days and privileged ease. Cadence Sinclair Eastman, the eldest grandchild, returns for "Summer Seventeen" with fragmented memories of a mysterious accident that occurred two years prior. She suffers from chronic migraines and a significant gap in her recollection of "Summer Fifteen," the season that irrevocably altered her life and the dynamics among her cousins, Johnny and Mirren, and family friend Gat - a quartet known as "the Liars."
As Cadence attempts to piece together the events of that fateful summer, she confronts the unsettling changes within her family and the evasiveness of the other Liars. This psychological thriller delves into themes of privilege, family secrets, and the consequences of hidden truths. Unravel the intricate web of lies and selective memories to discover what truly happened on Beechwood Island.
