Some secrets we run from.
Others we keep close.
When a child is seriously injured on a school field trip, Lizzie loses the support of her colleagues, followed closely by her job and apartment. Broke and ostracised, she seeks refuge with her brother, Justin. Except some consequences can't be avoided forever...
Justin is happy to offer his little sister a fresh start. But as Lizzie cobbles together a new life under his roof, Justin starts to fall apart. His recent promotion brings out the worst in already challenging colleagues –who have never understood his autistic traits– his best friend disappears for days at a time, and unwanted, deeply repressed memories begin to resurface.
As their shared trauma collides, Lizzie and Justin confront a deeply held secret connected to the accident that claimed the lives of their mother and sister twenty-five years ago. The truth will open questions of loyalty, forgiveness, and what it means to be family.
