It all started the previous summer. Marc, his wife, and their two teenage daughters spend a week in the Mediterranean at the Meier family's vacation home, with Ralph, his wife, and his mother-in-law, as well as film director Stanley Forbes and his girlfriend.

As the perfect vacation soon turns into a nightmare, the circumstances surrounding Ralph's death begin to reveal the disturbing reality behind that summer tragedy.
