Some secrets are better kept hidden.
Some things are better never spoken out loud.
Some people are better kept at a distance.
Charlotte knows all this.
Nevertheless, she can no longer stop the maelstrom of events. She has been hiding for months - and quite successfully. But now they are hot on her heels again, and only because she made a small mistake.
Just one small mistake.
And it is precisely this mistake that finally provides her with answers to questions she never wanted to ask. Questions that she has suppressed until now.
Questions she only has because she accidentally discovered the wrong deadly secrets.
