Are we more like a coffee bean, a carrot or an egg? What happens to us when we are boiled in the trials and tribulations of life? Jessica Miller is fascinated by the somewhat perplexing tendency of humans to end their own lives, but she secretly believes such acts may not be that bad after all. Jessica is coming to terms with her own relationships, and reflecting on what it means to be queer, when a single event throws everything she once believed into doubt. Can she still defend the act?

Für Rina und Mark wird der schlimmste Alptraum aller Eltern grausame Realität. Ihre kleine Tochter Charlotte stirbt bei einem Unfall. Mit dem Umzug vor die Tore Berlins wollen die beiden einen Neuanfang wagen, doch der Tod ihres Kindes steht zwischen ihnen wie eine unüberwindbare Mauer. Als Mark beginnt, Rina von der Umwelt abzuschirmen und sich zunehmend in Lügen verstrickt, wird sie misstrauisch. Warum hat er alles vernichtet, was an ihre Tochter erinnert? Ist Mark wirklich der Mann, für den er sich ausgibt? Rina gräbt tiefer und was dabei ans Tageslicht kommt, droht ihr den Verstand zu rauben.

A body is floating face down in the middle of the infinity pool. For a second I think I’m imagining it. My head is throbbing as I pull my sunglasses down over my eyes. It’s not even 8 a.m. and the blazing Tuscan sunshine is already stifling. Flashes of last night play over in my mind. The spiteful words hurled across the table. The ruined meal. The endless glasses of crisp white wine. My daughter watching my every move. This beautiful villa was the only good thing that came out of my painful divorce. I fix my eyes on the gently swaying cypress trees as I try to calm my breathing.

Story
No one knows Margo's real name. Her colleagues and patrons at a small-town public library only know her middle-aged normalcy, congeniality and charm. They have no reason to suspect that she is, in fact, a former nurse with a trail of countless premature deaths in her wake. She has turned a new page, so to speak, and the library is her sanctuary, a place to quell old urges. That is, at least, until Patricia, a recent graduate and failed novelist, joins the library staff. Patricia quickly notices Margo's subtly sinister edge and watches her carefully.

Story
November 1978. Britain is on strike. The dead lie unburied, rubbish piles in the streets—and somewhere in West London a black woman dies in a rain-soaked gutter. Her passing would have gone unmourned but for the young woman who finds her and who believes—apparently against reason—that Annie was murdered. But whatever the truth about Annie—whether she was as mad as her neighbors claimed, whether she lived in squalor as the police said—something passed between her and Mrs. Ranelagh in the moment of death which binds this one woman to her cause for the next twenty years.

Der friedliche Sternenhimmel über Irland täuscht. Schon in seiner ersten Nacht wird der deutsche Hobbyastronom Peter Kaufmann rüde gestört. Verwahrlost und völlig verängstigt präsentiert sich die neue Obermieterin Aoife und jagt sogar der sonst so gelassenen B&B-Besitzerin Emily Byrne Angst ein. Als Peter ein Foto der verwirrten Alten in einer Vermisstendatenbank entdeckt, eilt Betreiberin Sophie Whelan sofort zur Stelle. Doch auch die 29-Jährige hat etwas zu verbergen! Als Aoife erneut untertaucht, ist mit ihr nicht nur die Lösung eines jahrzehntealten Familiengeheimnisses verschwunden – sondern auch Emily.

Story
Nora, poco più di trent'anni, non avrebbe mai voluto fare l'insegnante - ovvio, considerato quello che le è successo alle superiori. Ma di fronte all'ennesimo lavoro precario e a un ufficio tossico, decide che non c'è spazio per lei a Milano: meglio trasferirsi da qualche parte nel Nord Europa. Pur di mettere da parte dei soldi per il suo viaggio, accetta una supplenza in una scuola paritaria, il liceo Ariosto, nel centro di Milano.
