Gardenia, California: a suburb of tennis courts and judgmental WASPs. Since you’ve moved here last month, you’ve realized no one is safe—especially the Bloodworths, your next door neighbors.
Mr. and Mrs. Bloodworth and their five sons are by far the strangest in town. The five brothers—Callum, Lex, Braxton, Mason, and Theodore, from youngest to eldest—are anything but congenial. They shy away from tennis courts and Gardenia itself, much to the distaste of its inhabitants. Not much is known about them, other than that their family harbors dark secrets and that they are strikingly handsome. They seem to move as one entity wherever they go; they are rarely seen apart. From afar they appear as quintuplets who merely differ in height, with identical midnight-colored hair and eyes, wiry bodies and porcelain skin. The allure of their mystery entrances you as you gaze upon the brothers, sitting on their lawn. Will you dig deeper? Or are you not ready to dust off the skeletons in their closet?
