Three sisters reunite on a family camping trip for their parents’ anniversary, but their attempt to reconnect is thrown into chaos when a dead body turns up at their campsite. Remi Finch, who has spent years avoiding her family due to anxiety and a strained relationship with her sisters, is reluctantly part of the reunion. However, when the body is discovered, the Finch women quickly fall into their familiar pattern—covering up the truth to protect each other. As they navigate old grudges, new tensions, and a handsome park ranger, Remi is forced to confront the tangled family dynamics and realize that nothing strengthens family bonds like a shared secret. Amid the mystery and the body that won’t stay hidden, Remi will learn that the ties between sisters are more complicated—and more resilient—than she ever imagined.
