A true story of an impressionable divorced mother of two young boys who takes a holiday in Malta where she is befriended by a charismatic French couple.
Invited to visit their home in Paris, they introduce her to the shy, impeccably mannered, Claude.
Romance flourishes and they have a son. The chance of her family living in the South of France seems to be a dream come true. But deeply hidden secrets arise, casting ever-darkening shadows beneath the Mediterranean sun. As each layer of deceit is exposed, it awakens an evil from the past, the horrors of which herald an omen of unimaginable repercussions.
The consequences are far-reaching. From her Cornish homeland to the Languedoc Rousillon region of southern France, more than geographical boundaries are crossed as a sinister game of cat and mouse ensues as each player strives to outwit the other.
Under the Hague Convention, facing charges of child abduction, it becomes clear that the only laws that truly apply are the laws of survival in a mother’s desperate bid to protect her child… but at what cost?

’Jan is one of thousands of families affected by this issue every year. After my own lived experience, I set up the charity Global ARRK. We are contacted by over 300 desperate families every year, all going through an international custody dispute. Around 30% have been accused of child abduction under the Hague Convention (1980) after they tried to return home with their child.
Official reports say that over 75% of these cases involve a primary carer mother taking her child back to her home country after experiencing domestic abuse.’
