Elodie was beautiful. Elodie was smart. Elodie was troubled. Elodie is dead.
In Provence, under a sweltering sun, Sylvie returns to the crumbling family home of La Reverie with her youngest daughter Emma.

As temperatures rise, and forest fires rage through the French countryside, memories of Elodie spread further through Sylvie’s mind…
Because there’s something Sylvie’s been hiding about what happened to Elodie all those summers ago.
And it could change everything.
