Description: Annie Delancey is happily married, in her early 50s, with three grown children. But Lizzie guards a dark secret. At age 18 she had a baby boy, and gave him up for adoption. She still thinks of him every day. Then, out of the blue, she receives an official-looking letter from Kent Social Services. Her son, Daniel, wants to make contact. On one hand she is overjoyed -- she longs to meet him. On the other, she has never told her children that they have another sibling. When Daniel is introduced to them, a few small tears in the family fabric suddenly gape wide, and the impact is greater than Annie could have ever imagined.
