Annette Best is losing her grip. First went her business, then her house. Now, she's on the brink of losing her marriage, too. But the forty-something realtor has one thing going for her: girl friends. The women of Apple Hill Lane show up on moving day, ready to help Annette kiss her old life goodbye until an eerie discovery turns up in her very own backyard. Suddenly, Annette finds herself at the center of a small-town scandal and in danger of risking the biggest sale of her career. Others on Apple Hill Lane have been down this road -- but not Annette Best. After all, she is the Best on the Block. There's a chance Annette can keep her secrets -- and those of Harbor Hills -- buried. But only if her neighbors are willing to share the burden of protecting a local, decades-old mystery. Can Beverly, Quinn, Annette, and Judith make sense of the past? Or will the women get caught up in the gossip of the present?
