girls at a convent school play truth-or-dare together for the last
time––the garment game, as they call it. Two of them, the Viñó twins,
are about to set forth on a new life, far away from boarding school.
It’s a special occasion and they know it, but they can’t imagine that a
cruel promise will wind up marking their lives forever. The girls lose
sight of each other and take different roads: Marta becomes a celebrated
cook book author, Olga loses thirty kilos, Nina finds a mysterious new
boyfriend, Lola gets pregnant at forty-five and loses her husband, and
Júlia becomes the first female member of congress in the newborn Spanish
democracy.
Five friends, a night full of secrets and recrimination, thirty years
of memories, and a dinner that
