Description

Years after a close-knit group of childhood friends has gone their separate ways, the death of one of their number draws them back into the orbit of a shared and troubling past. Moving between the late 1970s and the present, the story gradually exposes the secrets, loyalties, and betrayals that shaped them—and the ways memory can distort what they thought they knew. With a particular focus on its male characters, this atmospheric psychological mystery explores friendship, guilt, buried trauma, and the lasting consequences of childhood choices.
