They say a smile can change the world. It can also change the course of your life.
In 1993, Grace Gambino's life takes a harrowing turn when she waves at a bearded man with a kind smile, plunging her into a nightmare that lasts 1286 days. Unbeknownst to her, she is pregnant with Mariah Hope, a daughter who becomes the light in her darkest hours. While Grace battles the psychological and physical chains of her captor, Mariah fills the dark hole he has dug. One she so desperately wants to plummet into.
Declan Callahan never dreamed he was moving next door to something out of a Stephen King novel. A widower, running from his own dark past of guilt and regret, does his best not to involve himself with the bearded neighbor and his beautiful daughter. Until one winter's morning when he becomes an unexpected ally in Grace and Mariah's escape.
Grace tries to piece together a life for herself and Mariah with the shards of glass left from her past, but it's proving to be all but impossible.
Declan never intended on becoming the sunrise to the new nightmare Grace is living. Is he the catalyst to keep Grace from giving up on the life she fought so hard to get back, or will they both end up another piece of the pasts they are running from?
