A gifted and reclusive ghostwriter, Alice Lovett, makes a living helping others tell their stories, yet she is haunted by her own untold narrative: "the things that happened while I was asleep." In 1999, Nick Brothers and his high school lacrosse team, reigning state champs, enjoy their senior year in a wealthy Baltimore suburb, seemingly untouched by the pressures of college applications. However, everything changes when a private school girl attempts suicide after one of their "legendary" parties, igniting rumors of sexual assault involving two of Nick's teammates. The team quickly rallies to protect their own, casting doubt on the girl's story, and the town moves on, but not everyone can forget. Fifteen years later, four individuals—Alice, Nick, a documentary filmmaker, and a wealthy entrepreneur—remain haunted by their past roles and the unresolved questions that linger. Told from multiple perspectives, the narrative gradually unveils the layers of mystery surrounding that night and its aftermath. This compelling tale serves as both a gripping page-turner and a thought-provoking exploration of enduring issues, marking the debut of a remarkable new voice in fiction.
