Paris. A city of lights, of luxury, of lies.

Struggling writer Michael needs the money, so when he's hired to chaperone the wealthy young Clara around the city's finest sights, he takes the job. It should be easy work.

But Clara is cold, imperious, and rude beyond belief. She is also hiding something. Michael can feel it in her silences, in the places she asks to visit, and in the questions she never answers. And he can't stop wondering why.

Then he begins to pull at the threads of an extraordinary family secret. One that someone is prepared to kill to protect.

The closer Michael gets to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes. And the more time he spends with Clara, the harder it is to tell where her obsession ends and his begins . . .
