No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
It was supposed to be the perfect getaway, but a knock at the door could ruin their lives.
After her recent separation, Tabitha Weaver is holding her life together by a thread. Luckily, her six closest friends have the perfect cure for heartbreak: a weekend in the countryside complete with relaxation, a blind date, and all the wine she can handle.
But it isnโt long before their night at the secluded rental house goes sour. The drinks flow a little too freely and lingering tensions arise before theyโre interrupted by frantic knocking at the door. The stranger claims to have been in an accident, and though her head is bleeding, she refuses to let them call an ambulance.ย
With Tabitha distracted by her new beau, another friend leaving to check out the scene of the accident, and the rest of the group busy feuding, they lose track of the strangerโs whereabouts. It isnโt until she wakes up with a hangover that Tabitha finds a note on her dresser: Donโt stop until you find it.
Tabitha disregards the note, and the evening, and returns home believing the weekend is behind her. But when the strange woman is reported missing, the police start circlingโthe group must reexamine their accounts of what happened that night. And the discrepancies in their stories cannot be overlooked. It doesnโt help that the police have discovered clues to suggest foul play.
As the evidence mounts against them, loyalties are tested. Tabitha is desperate to find the truth about what happened to the woman.
Which of her friends is lying? Who can she trust?
