Camilla Telfer grew up in Cedar Bay, a small coastal city in Oregon, just an hours drive from Salem. As the only child of workaholic parents, she spent most of her childhood with her best friend, Marco, a boy a year older, full of life, laughter, and an unwavering belief in the goodness of the world. But when Camilla enters high school, everything shifts. Marco has a new friend group, another best friend, a life that suddenly feels just out of reach. Despite her worries, she blends in seamlessly, spending the next few years laughing, exploring, and singing along to the effortless rhythm of her life. Then comes the summer before their goodbyes, when all of Camilla's closes friends are ready to graduate and she still has a year left. So in the summer of '93 they all decide to go on one last trip together, four weeks in Marco's family house in Italy. A perfect send-off before they all go their separate ways for college. But something unspoken lingers between them, something no one dares to acknowledge. Their long trip stands for something neither of them can prepare themselfs for. And as the sun-soaked days slip away, secrets unravel, confessions shake the ground beneath them, Camilla is stuck in an inner battle of deciding where she will go after the month ends, and Marco's breathing is getting heavier...
