Hilda Dyer, Janet Dyer and Monica James are three generations of women from the same family. Each woman became pregnant as a teenager. Hilda was gang-raped and she kept it a secret for nearly her entire life. Janet, Hilda's daughter, was seduced by a man whom she thought loved her, but later found out he was married and he only used her and then left her behind. And Monica, Janet's daughter, became pregnant when she had unprotected sex with her teenage boyfriend. When Hilda became sick and was about to die, she told Janet the truth about who her father might be and also that she was raped. She also disclosed the identities of the men who had raped her. Hilda's confession shocked Janet, leading to the realization that she might be related to the man who had gotten her pregnant. This knowledge took a negative hold on Janet's life, causing her great distress. For many years, she sought comfort in alcohol. Janet refused to let go of her ugly past, but when her children began to suffer as a result of her actions, she discovered that she desperately needed to stop living in the past because if she didn't, she would continue to destroy her life, as well as her children's.
