Genre:
They meet at a local tavern in the small town of Belleville
Delaware. Polly is set on heading west. Adam says he's also passing through. Yet she stays and he stays
drawn to this mysterious redhead whose quiet stillness both unnerves and excites him. Over the course of a punishing summer
Polly and Adam abandon themselves to a steamy
inexorable affair. Still
each holds something back from the other
dangerous
even lethal
secrets. Then someone dies. Was it an accident
or part of a plan? By now
Adam and Polly are so ensnared in each other's lives and lies that neither one knows how to get away
or even if they want to. Is their love strong enough to withstand the truth
or will it ultimately destroy them? Something
or someone
has to give. Which one will it be?
