   Summary

   A few months after Joe Miller's arrestation, everyone is trying to get back on track while waiting for the primary audition.
   But Joe's decision changes everything and throws both the Latimers and the Millers, as well as the whole community into the hardship of a full trial.
   In the meantime, Alec decides to start fighting again in order to solve the Sandbrook case for good, with the help of Ellie.
   Nothing is certain anymore, and the future is blurry.

   When the waves crash, the feeling you have for someone else may be the only thing keeping your head above the surface. And right now, for both Alec and Alexander, the waves seem infernous.
