Ruth Henderson, now frail and living in Sydney, is the last person alive who knows the truth behind the mysterious death of music legend James Bennett in 1972. When his long-lost final album resurfaces, ambitious journalist Kate Griffin convinces Ruth to share her story. As their interviews unfold, the narrative shifts between present-day Australia and the hedonistic peaks of 1970s Somerset and London, revealing the complex friendship between Ruth and Adela, James’s wife. Amid lingering trauma, betrayal, and secrets, a profound bond forms between Ruth and Kate, challenging both to reconsider what matters most. Rich in empathy, this emotional mystery explores how the invisible marks of female friendship endure across time.
