Synopsis

Rosie appears at the kitchen door. Her hair’s tousled, eyes cloudy with sleep. She puts an arm around my neck and I hold her. Her warm, compact body, clean and innocent, brings back in a heartbeat so many memories of the past. Of everything I’ve lost…

Becca’s little daughter Rosie and her son Alex know their mother can’t always be there to tuck them in at night. Ever since their daddy went away, Becca’s had to take a second job in a restaurant to pay the bills.

But when Becca meets Maddy, she feels so sorry for her. Maddy has lost everything – the victim of something so heartbreaking she can’t even talk about it. Becca’s struggles, next to Maddy’s, are nothing – after all, Becca’s got a beautiful family and a roof over her head. She should help Maddy and set a good example for Rosie and Alex... shouldn’t she?

But as Becky lets Maddy into her world, she begins to grow worried. Maddy refuses to talk about what happened in her past, and as Becky struggles to piece together what exactly happened, Maddy’s behaviour begins to grow more unpredictable. Most worrying of all, Maddy is becoming increasingly attached to five-year-old Rosie…
