En la misteriosa isla griega de Thasos, Lily Corey y su hermano Paul pasan el verano con sus padres. Lily disfruta explorando la isla y estudiando mitología antigua hasta que conocen a Jack Hemmings. La amistad entre Paul y Jack hace que Lily se sienta excluida, considerándolo un presumido y falso. Sin embargo, un día, Jack se excede y ocurre algo terrible. Esta es una historia de crecimiento, valentía y compasión en medio de un exótico entorno griego.
