On a sharp winter's morning, Joseph Scott is released from prison, having served a term for the manslaughter of his wife, Zoe, in front of their three children. He has lost his career, his wife, and the future he had envisioned, and is barred from seeing his children: Scarlet, Theo, and Ben. Now, three years later, he is starting over and wants his family back more than anything. The children are in the care of Zoe's parents, Hannah and Frederick, who are consumed by grief and cannot forgive or understand Joseph's actions. The novel explores the aftermath of the tragedy, focusing on the emotional tug-of-war between a desperate father seeking reunification with his children and the protective, unforgiving grandparents determined to stop him. The story is a compelling examination of family dynamics, loss, and the possibility of forgiveness.
