The perfect family. The perfect celebration. The perfect day for revenge.

The day of the garden party should've been a celebration of love for Raphael and his fiance, as they toast their engagement with their families. But for someone, it's an opportunity to unveil the lies that have bound the family together over the years.

With their nearest and dearest gathered at the family manor, as the first glass is raised, the secrets that bind them begin to crack. And what should have been the happiest day of their lives, might just end as a day they'd rather forget
