In a house made of glass, there is nowhere to hide from the heat of his desire.

Julian is trapped in a masterpiece of architectural arrogance: his father's coastal villa. With its floor-to-ceiling glass walls, the house is designed to be a sanctuary of visibility, but for Julian, it is a cage of suffocating proximity. When his father departs for a ten-day business trip to Dubai, Julian is left alone with Elena, the woman who raised him.

As the Mediterranean humidity rises, the "maternal" mask Elena usually wears begins to shatter, and she takes control.
