Solicitor Joanna Brennan is asked to administer the will of her mother's friend, Agnes Kilmartin, who has just suffered a serious heart attack. Agnes is about to reveal the secrets behind her bequests, but passes away before she can tell Joanna the truth. To fulfill the unusual requests in Agnes's will, Joanna must embark on a journey back to the past - to a long-forgotten murder and a world where nothing was as it seemed. Tom Kilmartin, Agnes's son, doesn't understand the will either, but is keen to uncover the secrets it is hiding. As Joanna starts to investigate her mother's past, her relationship with Tom deepens. But is he someone she can trust, or has she misread the signs? Moving between a horrifying mystery in the past and a web of lies in the present, Joanna must face some dramatic truths that will alter all their lives forever.
