As the daughter of a murderer, Sylvia may seem the perfect target for the Gallo siblings to frame for the murder of their abusive father, but the right girl to frame is the wrong girl to trust.
When young Sylvia finds herself on her own, she accepts the one opportunity to remain at her beloved lake by moving in with her rich but intimidating neighbors, the Gallos. She can't deny the additional bonus of once again getting close to drop-dead gorgeous Nick Gallo, even if he is now dating the annoying new girl who's reignited the community's zeal for bullying Sylvia over her bluebeard father's crimes.
But before the Gallo siblings have completed their murderous plan, youngest brother Nick and his girlfriend go missing and leave behind a bloody trail.
The Gallos point at Sylvia, who was at the crime scene and has suffered a strike to the head, leaving her without memory of her last moments with the missing couple. But as the plans to frame her for a murder surface, Sylvia seeks the truth. It's her only hope to perhaps rescue Nick and prove to everyone that she's innocent. Not an easy task as the Gallos and neighbors increasingly accuse her and threaten her life. Worse, more and more of the clues she uncovers point toward her as the guilty one.
THE GALLOS is a dark psychological thriller, told from Sylvia's point of view with journal entries from the eldest Gallo sibling, Angelina Gallo.
