Overview
Laura is a manager at the Grand Paloma Resort, a Dominican woman who has risen this far through sheer hard work. Her idea to pair “platinum” guests with a resort employee to attend to their every need has been wildly successful. She’s mere weeks away from a promotion that will blaze a path off the resort, to a life of opportunity. If only her younger sister, Elena—who she’s looked after since the death of their mother – could get with the program.
Elena has tried her best to live up to her sister’s expectations. To escape the drudgery of waiting on rich tourists, she’s become increasingly dependent on pills and partying. As a babysitter at the resort, she’s at the mercy of guests who travel to indulge their worst impulses and need someone else to watch their kids while they do so. Now, after an accident, a child in her charge is believed dead, and Elena knows she'll be held responsible.
At a local beachfront watering hole, Elena runs into the child’s father. He offers her an obscene amount of money to give him private time with two young local girls. Elena pockets the cash to fund her escape and prays she’s gotten the girls out of harm’s way.
Set over the course of seven days, The Grand Paloma Resort offers an unforgettable story of class, family, and community, building to an intense climax in which the true costs of luxury are laid bare, forcing Laura and Elena to reckon with long-held secrets and true acts of love.
