The Reunion
What you need to know before your trail
1992: On a freezing night, as her high school campus is engulfed by a snowstorm, 19-year-old Vinca Rockwell runs away with Alexis, her philosophy teacher.
No one will ever see them again.
2017 : Formerly inseparable, Thomas, Maxime and Fanny – Vinca’s best friends – have not spoken in twenty-five years. But when they receive an invitation to their school reunion, they know they must go back one final time.
Because there is a body buried in that school…
…and they’re the ones who put it there.
Travel Guide
Travel to the French Riviera BookTrail style for one school reunion you will never forget
The view was breathtaking, sweeping from the old city walls of Antibes across the bay of Nice, framed by the mountains inland. Here, in the shelter of the pine forest, were some of the most lavish properties on the Cote D’Azur. The air quivered with the crash of wave sending up the sea spray; she could feel the brute force of the sea.
The area had seen many tragic accident in the past The swell from roiling waves had swept away fisherman, tourists, even couples who had come to make love by the shores. The resulting outcry had forced the authorities to secure the way ,building concrete steps, clearing the path and erecting barriers to thwart the hikers’ impulse to get too close to the edge. But it only took a few hours of high winds to turn it into dangerous terrain once more.
And that’s even before the reunion:
The school itself is fictional of course but it’s a renowned school for expats and is modeled around the teaching of foreign languages. The flagship school of the Sophia Antipolis Technology Park celebrates its 50th anniversary when the reunion takes place. OF course we all have secrets buried in the past, but not usually in the school grounds.
