In Prescott, truth is dangerous — and once it breaks through, even concrete can’t bury it.

But this long-­awaited agreement will be disrupted by an event as troubling as it is unexpected. From then on, everything tips over for them, but also for their three respective heirs, who soon find themselves drawn into the merciless struggle that this event triggers between the two families.
