✦ Maddie Routledge is a beautiful Pogue girl who lives at the Cut, in the Château, with her brother, John B. Routledge. ✦ Her father, Big John, disappeared at sea and hasn't been found yet. Since then, Maddie has struggled with some problems but finds strength in her group of friends. ✦ The Cut is a vibrant, rough part of town, and the Château is a cozy but rundown refuge filled with memories of their father. ✦ Maddie's best friends-JJ, Kie, and Pope-support her through this process. This summer, they face new challenges, including personal struggles, the search for the gold, and pressures from the wealthier Kooks. ✦ Despite the troubles, they want to enjoy their summer together! 🌊✨🥥
