Evie Boyd is desperate to be noticed. In the summer of 1969, empty days stretch out under the California sun. The smell of honeysuckle thickens the air, and the sidewalks radiate heat. Until she sees them. The snatch of cold laughter. Hair long and uncombed. Dirty dresses skimming the tops of thighs. Cheap rings like a second set of knuckles. The girls. And at the centre, Russell. Russell and the ranch, down a long dirt track and deep in the hills. Incense and clumsily strummed chords. Rumours of sex, frenzied gatherings, teen runaways.

No final da década de 1960, a jovem Evie Boyd vive sozinha com a mãe no norte da Califórnia. Aos quatorze anos, imersa em inúmeras questões de autoaceitação, ela se sente muito desconfortável com o próprio corpo e tem apenas uma pessoa com quem contar: Connie, sua amiga de infância. No início do verão, uma briga faz com que as duas se afastem, e Evie encontra um novo grupo: garotas que demonstram extrema liberdade, usam roupas desleixadas e emanam uma atmosfera de abandono que a deixa fascinada.

Vous saviez que dans le vin chaud, il y avait de l'alcool ? Eh bien moi, je l'ignorais ! Et c'est probablement pour cette raison que je me réveille dans le lit d'un mec canon que je ne connais pas, quand lui dort à moitié nu sur son canapé. Il dit s'appeler Tom, comme mon husky. Mais ce n'est pas tout ! Il a les mêmes yeux vairons que lui, ainsi que des cheveux poivre et sel… dans le mille, comme les poils de mon chien.
