The woman - *Amanda, 50 years old* - falls to her death.
Gabe says: "She jumped. I couldn't stop her."
But Pippa's memory nags at her: _He was holding his hands the way you would if you'd pushed someone._
And when the police arrive, Pippa learns a huge lie: *Gabe knew Amanda.* He said she was a stranger. Why did he lie?
Was it suicide? Was it murder? Was she pushed?
Amanda's husband *Max* arrives in town and is convinced his wife would NEVER kill herself. He demands justice.
*Told by Two Women:*
The book alternates between:
1. *Pippa - Then and Now.* Now, as she is interrogated by police and wonders if her soulmate is a killer. Then, as she remembers how they met, their perfect love story, and the dark cracks: Gabe losing jobs, moving suddenly, his family history of mental illness and suicide, and her own affair.
2. *Amanda - Speaking from beyond the grave.* In her chapters, we learn why she _really_ went to the cliff that night. She did not go there to die. She went there because she discovered a terrible secret about her husband Max, and about Gabe.
