Synopsis
Marti Geller is going to die soon, and she's hoping to take her secrets with her.
To do this, Marti has stipulated in her will that the family's summer home, on Mount Desert Island, must be sold. This request comes as a shock to her three daughters, a trio of strong-minded women who are each hiding a secret of their own.
For the eldest daughter, Beck, the Maine cottage is essential to her secret wish to write a novel, and selling is the last thing she wants to do. Recently divorced Claire is too preoccupied with an unrequited love to be concerned about the sale, while
the youngest daughter, Sophie, would never admit to her sisters that she desperately needs the sale in order to survive. While the sisters argue over the fate of their late mother's property, enigmatic southerner C. J. Reynolds, with his own troubled past, is released from prison and begins to travel to Mount Desert Island.
As this seemingly unconnected group all head for the coast of Maine, nothing is as it seems. And everything is about to change...
