Two sisters from a Chinese-Indonesian family battle with the past when one of them poisons their entire family in this gripping storey about the secrets and betrayals that may come with excessive riches.
Gwendolyn and Estella have always been sisters in the best sense of the word. They've leaned on each other for support and confidence as they've grown up in an affluent, prominent, and often deceptive family. Gwendolyn, on the other hand, is in a coma, the solitary survivor of Estella's poisoning of the whole tribe.
Gwendolyn tries hard to retrace her recollections as she attempts to regain consciousness, attempting to piece together the events that led to this startling and horrific deed. Was it their aunt's death at sea, which remained a mystery? Estella's sour marriage to a possibly violent man? Or were their rich world's changing loyalties and underlying resentments too much for them to bear? Can Gwendolyn finally confront the long-buried secrets of their family's past, as well as the reality about who she and her sister are?
