Ellie Abbott has always been the dependable daughter, the one who stayed home to care for her mother while her sisters moved on with their lives. But after her mother's death, Ellie discovers a hidden trunk filled with old photographs and letters that reveal a secret past her mother never spoke of—a life involving a mysterious man and a tragic summer on the Alabama Gulf Coast. Determined to find the truth, Ellie travels to the seaside town where her mother grew up. As she uncovers a story of forbidden love and long-buried secrets from the 1950s, Ellie begins to realize that her own life has been on hold for far too long. In her search for her mother's history, she finds the courage to break free from her safe existence and finally come up for air.
