But, one dreadful night, a series of dramatic events unfolds and the lives of all are changed for ever. Over 40 years later, Pearl has become a successful writer. Yet there is one story she has never told, until her young cousin Catherine confesses a secret of her own that opens a door to Pearl's past - one she thought had been firmly sealed for ever. But is it too late for Pearl to find her own happy ending?
