Uma thought she knew her flatmate, Jayna. But she didn't. 
Not until she was murdered. Only then did she discover who Jayna really was.

And now Uma's asking questions and she'll stop at nothing until she learns what's behind the killing.

In spite of being warned off by the police. 
In spite of people she once knew as friends standing in her way.
In spite of others thinking she's to blame.

And then she's forced to confront something from her own past, something she hoped had long been buried and forgotten.
