Michelle has retired to a quiet existence in Burgundy, tending her garden and attending services at her parish. However, the hostility of her adult daughter Valérie remains Michelle’s great puzzlement: how can a child for whom she sacrificed so much treat her with such contempt? When Valérie drops off her son for a week with his grandmother, Michelle sees an opportunity to repair the relationship, but a culinary accident soon undercuts whatever trust remains. With the help of her best friend Marie-Claude, Michelle plots a path towards restoring the family life so long denied her. With a deceptively placid surface, this is a twisty and destabilizing thriller where family ties remain the most mysterious ingredient of all.
