Thirty-six-year-old high-school teacher Lauren seems to have it all. She moved back to Waverly, a small seaside town just north of Boston, several years ago. She has a great career and has finally found true love. Lauren's wedding is just a few weeks away when one of her students goes missing, and when his body is found a few days later, she suddenly becomes a person of interest.
With the help of his ninety-one-year-old grandfather, who is a retired town sheriff, and his best friend Jake, the current assistant sheriff, David sets out to find the truth.
