A nor'easter tears through the coastal town of Bellwether, Maine. By morning, Harbor House children's home is a burned-out shell, its counselor is dead, and its twelve young residents are gone. The town searches the harbor for four days, raises a memorial, and grieves them every October for twenty years.Lydia Moore has no memory of any of it.An investigative journalist in Boston, Lydia has always been told that her parents died when she was small and that her older sister drowned the autumn she was nine. Then the quiet, careful man who raised her dies, and leaves her a box she was never meant to open while he lived. Inside: three sealed letters, a shoebox of cassette tapes, and a photograph of twelve children in front of a brick house, taken the afternoon before the fire.One of them is a little girl in a yellow raincoat.Lydia.In Bellwether, the names have been stripped from the memorial plaque. Pages are missing from the fire report. The retired sheriff who led the search still watches the town from the top of the hill. And the reserved archivist sorting the town's old records seems to know exactly who Lydia is.The deeper Lydia digs, the clearer it becomes that the children of Harbor House didn't vanish by accident, and that someone has spent twenty years making sure nobody ever asked why.A gripping, emotional mystery about buried records, broken promises, and the families we refuse to forget.
