      Quels liens entre une jeune femme retenant de sa main, sur une chemise imbibée de sang, les derniers souffles de l'homme qu'elle aime et le jeune inconnu greffé de la cornée qui débarque comme un cheveu sur la soupe dans une cérémonie du souvenir? Quels liens entre le riche et sombre Taylor Greene et ce Dane Rudd dont personne finalement ne sait rien? A Discovery Bay, dans le labyrinthe d'îles et de chenaux que dessine le delta de Californie, tout acte de charité peut cacher le cœur d'un bourreau. Le père qui pleure la mort de son fils cherche aussi à sauver l'intégrité de son couple. La douleur, si elle reste sincère, est un outil social comme un autre : ouvrir la porte à un crime, n'importe quel crime, et l'accepter comme tel, c'est ouvrir une porte sur soi-même. Qui le supporterait?
