Everything seems to be going to plan until Jessica is stopped by the police while they are boarding the plane back to France. The circumstances of her arrest are suspicious and when Sarah and Chanel start looking for her, she is not to be found at any police station or hospital. Bound by the sacred bonds of friendship the girls decide to stay and find Jessica, far from imagining the magnitude of the secrets they are about to uncover and the danger that will be unleashed…
