However, it looks like her luck has changed when she gets a job on a prestigious flower farm in the Provence region. Could this be her opportunity to get her life back on track?
Unfortunately, the patriarch of the family company is discovered dead, and the spotlights falls to Alba as the prime suspect. But that's not all, in the midst of grappling with the mounting accusations, she discovers that the murdered man is in fact her father - and she's inherited a significant part of his estate.
