Summary
Aria Nguyen and Caliste Ha are identical twins. A fact that they just learned when a police officer told them that their mother is no longer a missing person. She's been found dead in Minnesota, a place neither knew they had a connection to. Aria is from DC, where she's been struggling to pay their sick aunt's medical bills and only does so by writing her classmates' papers for extra cash. Meanwhile, Caliste is a successful influencer in LA, not that their food mogul father cares. Both have dreamt of the moment they'd see their mother again, of being happy again, but they could've never imagined this nightmare. Their mom's body apparently hasn't aged, and there's a bruise on her neck. Now beckoned to the quaint yet eerie city of Les Eaux, where a ghoul supposedly haunts the waters, Caliste and Aria must delve into their family's past to find their mother's murderer. Secrets don't unravel easily though. And some people in this small town don't want to give theirs up without a fight.
