GRR Reviews One Distant Summer by Serena Clarke

Jacinda Prescott spent a summer in Sweet Breeze Bay, New Zealand, and the disaster she left behind was felt for a very long time. She went back to LA, built a music career as "Sin Scott", but when the music label execs tried to get her to sex up, and one of them even tried to feel her up, she had enough, went incognito, and went back to Sweet Breeze Bay, to confront her past... // Liam left everything behind after the death of his brother, the town's golden boy, and Jacinda may have been "at fault". He went back to town for closure and found Jacinda there... And they are neighbors for the summer. And the one secret that bound them together is hanging over them... But it may also be a way for them to heal... Until a reporter arrived...

Hmmm... The secrets and tragedies about, and there were a LOT of secrets buried that one night, and PLENTY of guilt to go around. I like it, except it was a bit morose.
