Ten people, five women, five men, are invited to a luxury hotel on a deserted tropical island. They soon realize they are completely isolated, cut off from the rest of the word and all means of communication, which rapidly becomes their worst nightmare.
Why were they lured into this morbid trap? The answer lies hidden in their past, shameful events that they each tried carefully to bury. Today, under the hot island sun, they have begun to pay. In the end, there will be none left. One by one, they will be killed off… posing the ultimate question: who’s the murderer?
