The presence of Luc, her old flame, in Kathmandu suddenly becomes the key to unravelling the mystery of an finding the solution to the curse. Ruth Beling, a family friend of Sam, may be another piece of the puzzle. Just before her eighteenth birthday, it is revealed to Ruth that she was adopted. Having always felt that something was missing in her life, she makes use of her adoptive parents' birthday gift by leaving for Kathmandu, not knowing that she has been there before. A familiar face on the street hints at an eighteen-year-old secret that could change Ruth's life forever. The source of the curse is the heartache of lovers betrayed and reaches out with its power to touch modern day people, separating them, bringing them together, and creating painful reunions which threaten to tear families apart as the truth comes out.
