Summer in Red Hook, Brooklyn, an isolated blue-collar neighborhood where hipster gourmet supermarkets push against tired housing projects. Bored and listless, fifteen-year-old June and Val take a pink plastic raft out onto the bay.But on the water, in the humid night, the girls disappear. Only Val will survive, washed ashore, bruised and unconscious, in the weeds. The shocking event will echo through a group of unforgettable characters, including Fadi,  an ambitious Lebanese bodega owner, Cree, a lost teenager who unwittingly makes himself the cops' chief suspect, Jonathan, Julliard drop-out, barfly, and struggling high school teacher, and Val, the grieving girl who must contend with the shadow of her missing friend and a truth she holds deep inside.
