Four friends-the golden boy, the optimist, the designer and the girl genius-united by a vision to change the world. Together, they created something powerful and unforgettable. But not everything is built to last. When Maggie Tang arrives as a transfer student at UC Berkeley in 2005, she has no idea how her life is about to change. In the hallway of her dingy apartment building, she meets Adam, Charles and Hari, the friends with whom she'll create Circle, the world's first major social media platform. But navigating her ambitions alongside love and friendship isn't so simple, and when they inevitably collide, Maggie exits Circle in dramatic fashion. A decade later, Maggie is struggling with a new professional venture when she receives an invitation to celebrate Circle's tenth anniversary on a private island in Norway, with the three people she has tried hardest to forget. While she's still bitter about how things ended, her company desperately needs the publicity, and deep down, Maggie can't resist the handwritten plea at the bottom-Come, please. Between boat rides and adventurous hikes, bit by bit the reunion begins to feel like old times. But the journalist writing a retrospective on Circle is eager for a scoop, which means they can't tiptoe around the past forever. And when a new truth is revealed about their fall-out all those years ago, Maggie will have to decide whether to run again or fight for a second chance with the people she once loved most.
