Five friends at the end of their schooldays dream of the long summer ahead. Their band, Friendly Fire, is just beginning to gel and out of the blue they receive the offer of a lifetime - to play at the wedding of a young football star and his celebrity girlfriend. It will be held at their villa in Tuscany, and they're promised a luxurious lifestyle. Too good to be true? A cruel joke? The only way to find out is to take a risk and go. Once there a series of horrific and mystifying events begins. Over the days they are each forced to face uncomfortable truths about themselves, their friends, their families, and their futures. Finally, after nights of argument, terror, apparitions, and disturbing memories, the shocking explanation of why they have been brought to the villa becomes clear. Not one of them will ever be the same again! Indie B.R.A.G. Medallion. Finalist in the 2021 Page Turner Awards.
