The summer they were eleven, they killed a man and buried his body in a cave. Since then, every year, one summer night has marked a ritual: a ritual never to forget, and never to betray. Five years have passed. Their sixteenth summer. The body, now a skeleton. Unraveled lies. A faceless blackmailer. The phone rings, and a life is torn apart. The bones, like their crime: never rotting, never fading away. Now, a living hell begins.
They cut up the headless body. If only it were someone else. If only they didn’t know his name. Pushed to their psychological limits, the friends return to the cave where everything began, and peer into each other’s faces. Among them is a liar. A nighttime disappearance. A journey to the sea. A life-risking scheme. Just when they think they can breathe again, their hard-won peace is torn apart.
