In the small rural town of Kiona, Rebecca Toyer and Zach Kincaid come from very different sides of the track. When Zach's wealthy mother goes missing, Rebecca – the truckie's daughter – finds herself the centre of attention and an important piece of the puzzle. Both teenagers become caught up in, and drawn deeper into, a tangled and dangerous situation, and as they each come under greater scrutiny, neither has ever felt more isolated. What begins as a sunny school break, an easy-going two weeks discovering romance, descends into hard lessons in sex, loyalty, love and betrayal. Confrontations are extreme and the possibilities shocking, but it's the familiar way the dust settles and the sense of history repeating that is the most disturbing of all.
