Patrick has married Ella in a second marriage after the death of his first wife Cecilia, who left him with three girls to raise. The marriage is happy, despite the opposition of Rebecca, Patrick's eldest daughter, who has never been able to forgive him for his constant infidelities to her mother. Not even the birth of Daniel, son of Patrick and Ella, moves Rebecca from her convictions. It will only be when the half-brother, at just fourteen years old, inexplicably takes his own life, that the family will find unity in the face of tragedy.
