Mars seeks out his sister's old friends: a group of girls dubbed the Honeys, named for the beehives they maintain behind their cabin. Folksy charm and sun-drenched festivities camouflage old-fashioned gender roles and a toxic preparatory rigor. What Mars finds is a bucolic fairytale not meant for him. But with his grief still fresh, he insists on attending in her place. This includes attendance at the prestigious Aspen Conservancy Summer Academy where his sister poured so much of her time. Mars's genderfluidity means he's often excluded from the traditions - and expectations - of his politically-connected family. But when Caroline dies under horrific circumstances, Mars is propelled to learn all he can about his once-inseparable sister who'd grown tragically distant. Mars has always been the lesser twin, the shadow to his sister Caroline's radiance. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we try to keep everyone healthy!
