They haven’t seen each other in years, not since that night.
When five friends reunite in a remote house, the plan is simple: talk, drink, and finally move on. But before the night is over, one of them is dead.
At first, it looks like an accident.
Then the stories begin.
Each of them remembers the night differently.
The argument. The messages. The moment everything changed.
Small details don’t match. Timelines shift. Objects move.
And the more they try to piece it together, the clearer it becomes:
Someone is lying.
But this isn’t just about what happened tonight.
Because years ago, at a lake they’ve never spoken about again, something else happened, something none of them has ever fully admitted.
And someone has decided the truth needs to come out.
No matter what it costs.
