Secrets, Lies & Scones

 

Escape to a South Pacific Island.

Clear aqua blue waters

Sand so white even the gulls need sunglasses.

Long lazy days languishing beneath swaying palms, sipping icy cold wine.

Leave your problems behind.

Sounds so good doesn’t it?

That’s what Alicia, Jackie and Susannah thought as they plan a trip to the South Pacific island of Henby.

Each with their own reasons for wanting to escape, the women’s excitement is short lived. When Alicia’s cantankerous daughter, Lexie, decides to tag along, not even surviving the politics of the local Ladies Club can prepare the women for the impending conflict.

With nowhere to run the idyllic island paradise turns into a battle ground where relationships are strained, friendships are tested and lies are uncovered. But it’s when the deeply buried secrets find their way into the light, the true meaning of friendship is challenged.
