Memories of his older sister's accident the year before haunt fifteen-year-old Hal when his family returns to the seaside site of the tragedy. As Hal tries to piece together what happened (assisted by his sister's voice in his head) he also falls in love. Tragedy and romance are entwined in this eerie story.
