After Rafaela

'You're going to regret this Leni, for the rest of your life. I'll make sure you regret it. I thought you were my best friend. I trusted you. You betrayed me and I'll never forgive you.'

What if obsession, grief and guilt never let you go?

Three London school friends, a death by drowning in Italy, and a lifetime of secrets, lies and regret. Leni, Rebecca and India were once young women on the verge of great things. Two decades later, their lives are spiralling dangerously out of control and it's all because of one girl, Rafaela.

In death, Rafaela still controls every move the friends make and that includes bringing them back to the Villa San Antonio on the shores of Lake Como, Italy for one final showdown.
