Principais Lições
A Summer in Greece, A Lifetime of Consequences
Ten years ago, three best friends-Bess, Joni, and Evangeline-traveled to Greece for a post-graduation celebration at Evangeline's family home on Tinos Island. What should have been the perfect summer turned tragic when Evangeline fell to her death from a cliffside path. The aftermath was brutal: Bess and Joni were charged with murder, vilified by international media as "sex-crazed jezebels," and imprisoned for six months before being acquitted. Now, Bess lives in self-imposed isolation in a desert cabin, working remotely and avoiding human connection. Her carefully constructed peace shatters when Joni appears at her door after a decade of silence, desperately needing an alibi. A local teenager named Willa is missing, and Joni is the prime suspect. The request pulls Bess back into a web of secrets she's spent years trying to escape. What really happened that night in Greece? Why did Joni suddenly cut off all contact after their acquittal? And most urgently-is history repeating itself with Willa's disappearance? As Bess reluctantly agrees to help, she's forced to confront the question: how far should loyalty extend when protecting someone might mean enabling their darkest impulses?
