PAST AND PRESENT BECOME DANGEROUSLY ENTWINED IN THIS INTRICATE AND COMPELLING PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER It is 2015, and successful Kiwi journalist Joy Manville enjoys a fulfilling life in New Zealand, Aotearoa, together with her older English husband, Stephen, a Professor in Film Studies at the University of Auckland. Almost an idyll, until their peaceful path through life is crossed by a dark shadow from Stephen's past. A persistent online shadow that leads Joy to question Stephen's integrity and forces her into a disturbing and deadly investigation - first in New Zealand and then at Stephen's childhood home and school in England. A dark drama that pits easy going, Kiwi egalitarianism against the privileged, often perverse background of an English upper class family.
