Charlotte Maynard rarely leaves her mother’s sprawling Connecticut lake house. When Spin, the youngest and favorite of her siblings, brings his fiance home for the summer, the entire family is intrigued. But as the wedding draws near, an array of simmering resentments and unfortunate truths are exposed. Ann Leary pulls back the curtain on a blended family, as they wrestle with liabilities left behind by their wonderfully flawed patriarch.
