Description: "One summer night in 1955, a boy and his cousin plunge naked into the moonlit waters of a rural quarry. Only one of them emerges.  Two decades later, Miles Teagarden, now divorced and a struggling writer, returns to his family home in Arden, Wisconsin, just as he had promised he would on that fateful night.
