Oliver Marks has just served 10 years in jail - for a murder he may or may not have committed. On the day he's released, he's greeted by the man who put him in prison. Detective Colborne is retiring, but before he does, he wants to know what really happened a decade ago.

Quando gli amici diventano nemici, non c'è limite al male che possono farci. Oliver Marks ha scontato dieci anni di carcere per l'omicidio di un compagno di college. Ai tempi della condanna, non tutti erano convinti della sua colpevolezza, in primis il detective Colborne, che ora lo attende fuori dal carcere per sapere finalmente la verità. La storia che Oliver si accinge a raccontargli si svolge alla Dellecher, una delle più prestigiose scuole di arte drammatica degli Stati Uniti, dove Shakespeare è venerato come un dio e non c'è limite alla competizione.

Oliver Marks bekommt immer nur die Nebenrollen. Trotzdem ist der junge Schauspieler glücklich am renommierten Dellecher College, einer abgeschiedenen Welt mit flackernden Kaminfeuern und ledergebundenen Büchern. Die sieben Studenten seines Jahrgangs sind eine eingeschworene Gemeinschaft, besessen von der Schauspielerei und von Shakespeare. Die Typen, die sie auf der Bühne verkörpern, legen sie auch privat nicht ab: Mitläufer, Verführerin, Held. Der charismatische Richard gibt die unberechenbaren Tyrannen. Doch eines Tages treibt einer der Freunde tot im Collegesee.

Matthew was my biggest regret. For years he was my best friend, but I never told him how I really felt. That I loved him. When all the words should have been said, I said nothing at all. For fifteen years I kept him in my dreams, letting my life coast along and pass me by. Until he came back. But Matthew wasn't the man I remembered. Cold and aloof, his hatred of me burned little holes into my heart. We had just fifteen days to reconnect. Probably too short a time to bridge the gap to the past. Could we get back to who we used to be, when we were young?
