By Genevieve Scott.
In the wake of a life-threatening ice storm in 1997 Ontario, chaos reigns on the Regis University campus as students revel in the cancelled classes. But amidst the festivities, eighteen-year-old Ros's world is shattered when her roommate Megan disappears without a trace. Blamed for the disappearance, Ros's life takes a dark turn, haunted by guilt and regret for the next two decades.
Fast forward to 2020, and Ros finds herself confronting a new crisis as her former partner, Lukas, is accused of sexual assault. The accusation unearths long-buried secrets, forcing Ros to confront the shadows of her past and reevaluate everything she thought she knew about herself, her relationships, and the society she grew up in. As she grapples with the complexities of trauma and accountability, Ros must navigate a path to redemption while facing the harsh realities of her past.
The Damages offers a compelling exploration of human relationships, memory, trauma, and identity. Perfect for those intrigued by the intricate interplay of these themes and their profound impact on the human experience.
