What We Did at Twenty

About this book:

Twelve years ago, four friends left Blackwood Estate swearing they'd never return. They'd buried a secret in the cold Maine mud and scattered to build quiet, careful lives. But Julian Vance—the golden boy who always got what he wanted—has summoned them back for his wedding at the newly renovated estate, right above the cove where they swore the ground would keep their silence forever.

Now Maya, Marcus, Sarah, and the vanished Arthur converge on a house stripped of its ghosts and rebuilt in glass and steel, while excavators tear up the shoreline below. Julian insists it's routine construction. The local paper calls it archaeological discovery. But every trench dug brings them closer to what they hid at twenty, and Julian's charming control masks a desperation that terrifies them more than the past ever did.

Atmospheric, razor-sharp, and relentlessly paced, *What We Did at Twenty* is a locked-room reunion thriller where the walls have ears, the ground has memory, and the only way out is through the truth they've spent a lifetime avoiding.
