There, a late-night collision triggers Natalie's long-buried trauma and a heightened sense of guilt. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Upon returning home to Boston, Natalie tries to settle back into her life as a food photographer and single mother to a teenage daughter--but then, one day, an anonymous email arrives about the Cayman accident that suggests foul play.
