Nothing in Stan Andino´s unremarkable life could prepare him for the day he discovers his wife naked, except for a black apron, bleaching out a stain from the carpet that only she can see. A CT scan one week later explains the seemingly inexplicable; Carmen Andino has a brain tumour.
As Stan and their teenage sons grapple with the diagnosis and frightening personality changes in their wife and mother, Austin Lamb, a close friend and local doctor, does everything possible to assist the family in crisis.
Months later, Austin´s wife´s body is discovered at the bottom of Browns Bay cliffs by Eliot Bard.
But who is lying, and who is telling the truth?
