Spending their summer holidays at their grandparents' house by the
sea, Sam and her two brothers play a series of dangerous games,
pitted against each other yet united in their secrecy from the
grown-ups. But when they discover a fierce dog mysteriously trapped
in an electrical substation, they face their first real challenge,
one from which they cannot walk away. Meanwhile, on a long weekend
in Germany, their aunt, Kate, and her new lover find themselves
playing games of their own. In the red-light district of Munich,
will Kate's surprising challenge for her boyfriend strengthen or
destroy their relationship? Many years ago, Sam's grandfather,
Richard, also played an unusual game, encouraged by a stranger, as
part of a scientific experiment. The choices he made then have
haunted him ever since. As Sam delves into her grandfather's secret
she discovers that where free will turns to blind obedience, true
horror lies.
