Opis

A tender yet tantalizing novel about two friends, the summer night they fell apart, and the scavenger hunt that reunites them decades later--until the clues expose a breathtaking secret that threatens to shatter them once and for all. Laura and Casey were once inseparable. Coming of age in a lakeside hamlet in California, Laura felt connected to her best friend in every way: as they floated on their backs in the sunlit lake; as they dreamed about the future under starry skies; and as they teamed up for the popular scavenger hunts organized by Casey's mother, who happened to be everything Laura's mother was not--passionate, artistic, unbound by rules. Laura found herself utterly drawn into their orbit, until one summer night when a shocking betrayal sent her running through the pines, down the dock, and into a new life, leaving Casey and a first love in her wake. Now, back home after seventeen years away, Laura quickly realizes that the past is impossible to escape, especially when Casey's mother lures the former friends into reuniting for one last scavenger hunt. With a twist: this time, the list of clues reveals the settings of their most cherished summer memories. As the game leads the pair from glistening Jade Cove to the beloved town skating rink, each step they take becomes a bittersweet reminder of the friendship they once shared, a chance to find their way back to each other. But little do they know that the clues are also silently unraveling a stunning secret--one buried even deeper in the past--and when the heartbreaking truth comes to light, the women must decide whether the final prize is worth fighting for. Mesmerizing and unforgettable, Amy Mason Doan's The Summer List is about losing and recapturing the person who understands you best--and the unbreakable bonds of girlhood.
