The narrative centers on Dieudonné Sabrina, a young black gardener accused of murdering his wealthy white employer and lover, Loraine. Set against the backdrop of social unrest in turn-of-the-twenty-first-century Guadeloupe, the story unfolds through multivoiced flashbacks during Dieudonné's frantic night following his acquittal.
