New Yorkers Michael, a famous writer, and Lizzie, a journalist, travel to Italy with their friends from Maine: Finn, his wife Taylor, and their daughter, Snow. 'From the beginning', says Taylor, 'it was a conspiracy for Lizzie and Finn to be together.'
Told in alternating points of view, the characters expose and stumble upon lies and infidelities past and present. Snow, 10 years old and precociously drawn into a far more adult drama, becomes the catalyst for catastrophe.
