Que se passe-t-il dans la cité de Glenfrome en cet après-midi de canicule qui précède le drame ? Cody Swift retourne "à la maison" pour interroger sa propre mère, Julie Swift, qui se souvient de ce terrible dimanche : les cagettes de fraises qu'il faut transformer en confiture, son fils et ses amis, le trio infernal...
