Summary
In 1966, the three Davenport sisters, heirs to a family fortune, live in a tense, secluded household. With no parents in sight, the eldest, Anna, must play mother to tippler Leonie and young, fragile Ginny. What awaits them in the outside world is uncertain. Little do they know, the sisters are about to receive an unwelcome visitor from their past, intent on dragging up secrets they tried to forget.

What dreadful truth lurks beneath the surface of their sibling rivalry and will it shatter their brittle world?
