Made famous by an American novel published in 1935, an English spa town is the setting for a dazzling and lyrical story, where history threatens to repeat an ancient crime.
Drawn to the town are two women, both haunted by hidden tragedy. Travelling there alone in 1938, a married German actress falls disastrously in love with a young Englishman, and seems to discover the novel's story made real. Then, in the present, a young woman meets an archaeologist working near the town, whose findings dramatically unlock the secrets buried in the land.
Against a powerful landscape of memory, passion and betrayal, their twin stories unfold, and the lost past is finally reclaimed.
