Settembre 1981. Rianne de Zoete, bellissima ereditiera sudafricana, viene mandata a studiare contro la sua volontà in un esclusivo college inglese. Cresciuta secondo le regole della società bianca, privilegiata e razzista, Rianne è molto diversa dalle tre compagne con cui è costretta a condividere la stanza. Ma se con i suoi atteggiamenti arroganti risulta inizialmente insopportabile, ben presto le quattro trovano un'intesa e diventano inseparabili. Quando però Rianne scopre che il ragazzo più corteggiato del college è proprio Riitho Modise, figlio del più noto prigioniero politico sudafricano e soprattutto del nemico numero uno della sua famiglia, ecco che cominciano i guai seri.
