"Set in 1976 England during the hottest summer in living memory, in a seaside resort where the past still haunts the present. David, a college student, takes a summer job at a run-down family resort. This is against the wishes of his family because it was at this resort where David's biological father disappeared fifteen years earlier. But something undeniable has called David there. When he gets embroiled in a fiercely torrid love triangle, the stakes become menacing. And through it all, David feels as though he is getting closer to the secrets of his own past."-- Provided by publisher.
