In Coral Bay, everyone knows everyone.
And everyone has something to hide.
Eighteen-year-old Isla Bennett has spent most of her life believing her father abandoned her. Twelve years without a phone call. Twelve years without an explanation. Twelve years trying to convince herself she doesn't care why he left.
Until one summer night, her phone rings.
It's him.
And he has only one warning:
Stop looking for me.
But Isla has never been very good at leaving things alone.
With her cousin Harper, reckless best friend Brody, quiet and observant Theo, mysterious newcomer Sloane, and Noah Callahan-the infuriating boy from one of Coral Bay's wealthiest families-by her side, Isla begins searching for answers.
Instead, they uncover a mystery the town has spent twenty years trying to bury.
A nineteen-year-old girl who vanished without a trace.
An old photograph connecting their families.
A police investigation that was mysteriously shut down.
And secrets that someone is willing to do anything to keep hidden.
As Isla and Noah grow dangerously close and the six friends find themselves pulled deeper into Coral Bay's past, Isla begins to realise that her father may never have abandoned her at all.
He may have been running.
And whatever he was running from...
is still in Coral Bay.
Where the Waves Keep Secrets is a story of friendship, first love, buried truths and one unforgettable summer where six friends discover that some secrets don't stay buried forever.
