Denis is searching for his mother’s past, knowing she had secrets. In Nice, he finds her friends, Monique and Clemence.

Monique inspired his great designs in the chapel at Vence, Clemence, in pursuit of love, was caught in an affair that led to violence and disaster. So they have their own intense and colourful past - but they hold the key to Denis’s past, too. He’s about to face the greatest challenge of his life.
