Samenvatting:

2022. Heron has just had a doctor's appointment that completely turns his life upside down. He is an old man, he knows that dying at his age is no tragedy, but how can he leave Maggie behind? His only daughter, and the person around whom his life has revolved for so long... He wants to believe he did his best, but there are certain decisions you can't undo.

1982. Dawn is a young mother – just settling into her husband Heron's house – when Hazel storms into her life like a torch in the dark. She falls in love instantly. But Dawn is married, and has her daughter Maggie.

A heartbreaking and hopeful story about love and loss, intimacy and injustice, guardianship and care – and the question of whether it is possible to truly heal the wounds of the past.
