Nina is the peacemaker of the family — dutiful daughter, sister and wife. Richard is the baby of the family — he's always been spoilt, and in his mother's eye, can do no wrong.

But as the secrets of those closest to her are shockingly revealed, suddenly everything is under threat — her marriage, her home and her future happiness.
