hotel in the Canadian wilderness, and cruel, like the inscription made on the panoramic window of its sparkling lobby: «Why don’t you eat some broken glass?» Is it intended for Vincent — the mysterious young girl, whose past also has glass with an inscription, and soon there will be more serious secrets?
