Walking home late one night, fifteen-year-old Joe Kennedy is viciously attacked. Sheila Armstrong's grandson Leo, usually so quiet and well-behaved, is found holding a knife. Joe's mother Harriet cannot cope with her son's continuing pain: Sheila cannot escape the feeling that she is, somehow, to blame for Leo's actions. As the two women are bound unwittingly together by their sense of guilt, they confront the complex emotions that motherhood entails, in a moving tale of love and forgiveness.
