Ambrosia Wellington will never forget her college days, no matter how hard she tries. She has no plans to attend her ten-year-reunion, or be reminded of her former best friend, a larger-than-life girl who could make anyone do anything. Then an anonymous message arrives: “We need to talk about what we did that night.” It seems the secrets from Ambrosia’s past–and the people she thought she’d left there–aren’t as buried as she believed. Someone wants vengeance for the games they played a decade earlier, and will stop at nothing to make them pay…

Florence Darrow is a low-level publishing employee who believes she’s destined to be a famous writer. When she becomes the assistant to an enigmatic novelist known as Maud Dixon—whose true identity is a secret—it seems like Florence’s big chance. She eagerly accompanies Maud to Morocco, where her new novel is set.
