Emma Saylor Payne has always been Emma to her dad’s side of the family. Her mom called her Saylor, but her mom, an addict who’d been in and out of rehab, has been dead for five years now and was divorced from Emma’s father five years before that. But then a twist of fate leads Emma to spend the summer at her mom’s childhood home North Lake. At North Lake, Emma—though everyone here knows her as Saylor—reconnects with the family she hardly knows and learns about the mother she can barely remember and the place where her parents met, which is divided sharply into two worlds: the wealthy vacation spot her father visited and her mother’s working-class community. And she begins to realize that she’s not the girl she—or her father—has always thought she was.
