## Description

The course of Harry and Robin's married life was set when their three-year-old son, Dillon, disappeared. Five years on, their lives are approaching a fragile normality. That is until the day Harry catches sight of his dead son in the midst of a Dublin crowd . . . Harry and Robin must embark on a journey that demands they reevaluate everything they believe to be true - the secrets each holds and the lies they have told - and one that will test their trust in each other to the limit.
