The main character, Jack St. Bride, is a former teacher who was falsely accused of sexually assaulting a student and spent eight months in jail. After being released, he moves to Salem Falls, a small town in New England, to start a new life and leave his troubled past behind.
In Salem Falls, Jack meets Addie Peabody, a local diner owner, who he becomes involved with. However, not everyone in the town is happy with his presence and soon rumors start spreading about his past. A group of teenage girls, including the daughter of the town's wealthiest family, accuse him of sexual harassment.
