  When the Thompson twins invite 12-year-old Wilson to go to the beach with them in the summer of 1958, he couldn’t say no.

But, once the kids arrive at the beach house and find there’s no adult supervision, Wilson’s excitement turns to panic. 
  To his relief, Wilson makes a new friend on the pier who helps calm his anxieties for a moment. The moment only lasts until Wilson discovers something on the beach. Something that causes him to never return to the ocean for the rest of his life.
