Overview

The secrets we keep to survive. The love we allow to ruin us.

Emily Costa knows what she must do. It doesn’t matter that she fell in love with Alisa Zakharov at first sight, when she was only sixteen. The ethereal, angelic violist she watched from a distance is long gone, and a threat to Emily’s family stands in her place. She must infiltrate Alisa’s life, not only to extract every drop of knowledge possible about Alisa’s father, but to ensure that the woman herself isn’t a liability. And handle it if she is.

Alisa Zakharov is dead. The delicate flower who once lived pinned to her father’s lapel has disintegrated. She’s transformed herself into Alice Zimmerman, a ghost of a woman that has been hiding along the Pacific coastline for years, desperately hoping her father and fiancé never discover that she faked her death. But too many people have died keeping her safe. And Alice is done hiding.

In a quiet town on the Oregon coastline, Emily and Alice will face the fears that crawl from the deep to haunt them. Even if they become monsters along the way.
