llse is healing from a failed marriage as a result of her mother's betrayal. Ziltan is the sole caregiver to his abusive father. When he dies a secret is revealed which shatters Ziltan's entire world.

This is the journey of facing our failings and fears and how love, in all its shades and shadows, mends our tattered spirits.
