Our protagonist, Alex, finds herself in a bit of a pickle. She's pretending to be someone she's not, and let me tell you, it's a wild ride. One wrong move at a fancy dinner party and bam! She's out on her own, with only a train ticket back to the city and a waterlogged phone to her name.
But Alex isn't one to give up easily. Armed with the uncanny ability to understand people's desires, she decides to stick around on Long Island, even though she's no longer welcome. She becomes a ghost, floating through the ritzy neighborhoods and sun-drenched beaches, navigating a world that wasn't meant for her.
Driven by desperation and a constantly shifting sense of right and wrong, Alex embarks on a wild journey in the week leading up to Labor Day. She hops from one place to the next, leaving chaos in her wake. It's taut, it's pulsating, and trust me when I say, it's impossible to look away.
