Its also one of the most secret-filled.

Kellie Scott has just returned to work after a decade of being a stay-at-home mom.

Shes adjusting to high heels, scrambling to cook dinner for her family after a day at the office--and soaking in the dangerous attention of a very handsome, very married male colleague.

Kellies neighbor Susan Barrett begins every day with fresh resolutions: she wont eat any carbs, shell go to bed at a reasonable hour, and shell stop stalking her ex-husband and his new girlfriend.

Gigi Kennedy seems to have it all together--except her teenage daughter has turned into a hostile stranger and her husband is running for Congress, which means her old skeletons are in danger of being brought into the light.

Then a new family moves to this quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac.

Tessa Campbell seems friendly enough to the other mothers, if a bit reserved.

Then the neighbors notice that no one is ever invited to Tessas house.

And soon, it becomes clear that Tessa is hiding the biggest secret of all.
