Forbidden
Faces of Love

Dave Price returns home on a Sunday morning to find his girlfriend Abbey dead - posed with chilling precision, recreating one of his own photographs. What should have been a private world of love and art is transformed into a staged message, both intimate and horrifying.

Detective Janet Charles quickly realizes this is no random killing. The murder is personal, tied to Dave’s work and Abbey’s hidden past. As the investigation unfolds, Janet uncovers a web of jealousy, obsession, and betrayal involving powerful men Abbey once walked away from - and who may not have accepted her choice.

Moving between the present-day investigation and the unraveling history of Dave and Abbey’s intense relationship, Janet pieces together a truth built on desire, exposure, and revenge. But as the circle tightens, it becomes clear someone has been watching all along and carefully waiting for the moment to turn love into murder.
