20 years ago, Tansy was drawn to Selene's hard edges, her grit, and her knack for survival. Since then, the tangle of guilt about covering up a murder shattered their friendship, and even now, at 38, Tansy has never come to terms with what happened. But now, Selene is back, demanding her old friend repay her. Selene's daughter, Jupiter, attends the college where Tansy works as a guidance counsellor. Selene is convinced that Jupiter's boyfriend, Colton, is abusive, and wants Tansy to intervene. But Tansy suspects there's far more to the story, and she'll finally have to confront Selene once and for all.
