Ten years prior, Louise Hunter's world was shattered by a series of devastating events: her husband Ben's suicide, the murder of her brother-in-law Jacob, and the abandonment of her newborn niece by her sister Susan. This turmoil leaves Louise grappling with guilt, particularly over a brief affair she had with Ben's friend Eric. Despite Eric's persistent love for her, Louise struggles to move past her past mistakes. However, her life takes a positive turn when she adopts Jinnie, bringing a sense of joy and hope into her life. Yet, this newfound happiness is threatened when Susan re-enters the picture, demanding custody of Jinnie.

Adam's knowledge of what transpired puts them in danger, but their wise grandmother understands that they must eventually confront their past. As the story unfolds, the characters navigate complex emotions and relationships, revealing how the past can shape the present in profound ways.
