This is an almost true story about love and death: the thin line between good and evil. The author shows us the Provence as we know and like it and where she has lived and worked for 20 years; but also, that even the brilliant sun can hide the opposite of love: hate, dependency and, above all, abuse in all its shapes. The beautiful and mysterious Alice has experienced all of it and when she meets Steven, a former professional soccer player and now owner of a castle in the vineyards, she is afraid of putting her trust, so often misplaced and abused, in him. First, she will have to vanquish the ghosts over her life (and Steven of his) and get rid of the shady lawyer Fuentes with the help of her psychiatrist and the friends she has made in her therapy group. A psychological thriller full of suspense and deep insights into the human mind and into a world many are afraid of - the real world.
