Revolution has never looked so good...

'Dangerously fun' New York Times
'Escapist' Vogue
'Explosive and sexy' People

As a sun-drenched Mediterranean summer heads into full swing, beautiful and pampered seventeen-year-old Séverine Guimard is counting down the days until she can escape the island, dreaming of stardom while smoking cigarettes and seducing boys to pass the time.

That is, until three masked men tear her from her bike, duct tape her mouth and wrists, and take her somewhere hidden. While her politician parents try to negotiate for her release, Séverine finds herself beginning to sympathise with her captors, and becoming attracted to the group's charismatic leader, Bruno.

What follows is a summer of passion and terror, careening toward an inevitable, explosive conclusion, as Séverine steps into the biggest role of her life...
