À 22 ans, Alix arrive à Oxford pour se lancer dans un master de littérature. Elle rencontre Roman, un homme magnétique, charmant et impossible à cerner. Ce qui commence comme une attraction irrésistible devient vite un jeu dangereux de manipulation, de jalousie et de secrets. Autour d'eux gravitent ses amis, et chacun cache quelque chose. Entre soirées étudiantes, confidences volées et tensions silencieuses, Alix se perd dans une spirale où amour rime avec dépendance, et désir avec trahison. Quand la vérité éclate enfin, les apparences s'effondrent. Roman est-il vraiment le monstre ? Et Alix, est-elle si innocente que ça ?
