When she recognises one of their fellow guests as the good-looking, charismatic stranger who, weeks earlier, she slept with at her own bachelorette party, her perfect new life threatens to come crashing down.
Trapped on this island, can Abigail possibly outrun the myriad lies that surround her marriage?
