Their lives have been torn apart by tragedy . . .

Birmingham

Jo and Ian's marriage is hanging by a thread. One night almost two years ago, their adopted only child, Paul, twenty-three, died in a horrific accident which should never have happened.

They have recently moved to a new area of Birmingham, to be near Ian's mother Dorrie, who tragically lost her husband when Ian and his sister were very young. The accident in 1957 left a terrible mark on the family, but Dorrie only really starts to talk to Jo about what happened all these years later, now that the couple are living close by.
