Five friends are blackmailed into returning to the cult where they were raised to face their shared monstrous secret, by Miranda Beverly-Whittemore, the New York Times bestselling author of Bittersweet It's time to come Home. All five of you. Or else." Saskia was a damaged, lonely teenager when she arrived at the lakeside commune called Home. She was entranced by the tang of sourdough starter; the midnight call of the loons; the triumph of foraging wild mushrooms from the forest floor - and Abraham, Home's charismatic leader, the North Star to Saskia and the four other teenagers who lived there, her best and only friends. Two decades later, Saskia is shuttered in her Connecticut estate. She's not scared of the world; it's her own capacity for ruthlessness that's made her lock herself away. In the shadow of Home's stately pines all those years ago, Abraham weaponized this trait, singling her out to do his bidding. The results haunt her daily. Then her worst nightmare comes true: she and her estranged friends receive threatening letters. Unless they return to the land in rural Maine, the terrible thing they did as teenagers - their last ditch attempt to save Home - will be revealed. Returning to Home from vastly different lives to confront their blackmailer, the five must not only face their dark past, but reckon with what they are capable of now that they've been reunited. How far will they go to bury their secret forever? "
