Synopsis

The friendship between three young women is destroyed by the traumatic events of one night. Now, twenty years later, Simone’s debut novel has become an unexpected success, but it soon becomes apparent that the devastating story the book tells doesn’t exclusively belong to her, and the lives of these three friends unravel when a secret that lies within those pages is exposed.
