description:  A hidden past isnt past at all.Violet Figg and her sister Trudy have lived a quiet life in Sugar Bend ever since a night forty years ago stole Trudys voice and cemented Violets role as Trudys fierce and loyal protector. Now Trudy spends her days making sculptures from found objects and speaking via notes written on scraps of paper while Violet runs their art shop monitors the bird activity up and down the water and tries not to think of her one great love she gave up in order to keep her sister safe.Eighteen-year-old Maya knows where everyone else belongs but shes been searching for her own place ever since her grandmother died seven years ago. Moving in and out of strangers houses has left her exhausted so when she sees a flyer on a gas station window for a place called Sugar Bend she follows the strange pull she feels and finds herself on the doorstep of an art shop called Two Sisters.When a boat rises to the surface of Little River in the middle of the night the present and the no-longer-buried past clash and the future is at stake for Maya Violet and Trudy. As history creeps continually closer to the present and old secrets come to light the sisters must decide if its time to face the truth of what happened forty years ago or risk losing each other and newly formed bonds with those theyve come to love.
