One misstep at a dinner party and the older man she's been staying with dismisses her with a ride to the train station and a ticket back to the city.

With few resources, but a gift for navigating the desires of others, Alex stays on the island.

She drifts like a ghost through the gated driveways and sun-blasted dunes of a rarefied world, trailing destruction in her wake. Taut, sensual and impossible to look away from, The Guest captures the latent heat and potential danger of a summer that could go either way for a young woman teetering on the edge.
