In this adaptation of H. De Vere Stacpoole's short story "Passion Fruit", the idyllic land of New Caledonia in the early 20th Century sets the stage for a tragic tale of love and betrayal. Marianne and Cerise Ribot, two sisters managing their late father's tobacco shop, both fall for the charming and attractive Paul Carstairs, the second officer on a brig that arrives in Noumea. But when Carstairs deceives Marianne and abandons her without a word, Cerise is also left heartbroken after arranging a rendezvous with him under her sister's name. Marianne is left to cope with the aftermath of Carstairs' treachery. With its vivid descriptions of the South Pacific landscape and nuanced characters, this retelling will transport readers to another time and place, leaving them haunted by the Ribot sisters' story.
