If I had proposed to her a moment earlier, this would never have happened. We wouldn't have been attacked, I wouldn't have ended up in the hospital, and she wouldn't have disappeared from my life forever…

Damian Werner has made peace with the fact that he’ll never see his fiancée, Ewa again. After all, she disappeared ten years ago.

But when someone posts a picture online, claiming that they’re looking for the girl in the photo, Damian feels like he’s seen a ghost. The girl looks exactly like Ewa.

He writes it off as a coincidence, until another photo is posted – this time, one that Damian himself took of Ewa a few days before she went missing. A photo that he’s never shown to anyone else …

Damian soon finds himself tangled up in a web of questions. Is it really Ewa, reappearing after a decade? Who is looking for her? And most importantly, did he ever truly know the real her?
