Eleven-year-old Naomi Shaw believed in magic. Along with her best friends Cassidy and Olivia, she spent the summer wandering through the forest, imagining a world of rituals and wonders. The girls called it playing goddesses. But the carefree summer abruptly ended when one of them was attacked. Naomi suffered seventeen stab wounds and miraculously survived, but she couldn't identify her assailant. Thanks to the girls' testimony, a serial killer, sought for six crimes, was put behind bars. The friends became heroines. However, two of them turned out to be liars, and the third only remembered the pain of the knife blows… For over twenty years, they kept a secret that one could kill for. Now Olivia wants to tell what really happened. And Naomi, despite the immense danger, wants to find out what truly occurred in the forest.
