Elliott Sterling's life needs a reboot. A patient's suicide has shredded his self-confidence, his wife wants a divorce, and he is alienating their son. Elliott has lost a sense of life's meaning, that is, until he moves and meets his 87-year-old neighbor, Milena Hodrová, a survivor of the Holocaust. Milena's daughter is a journalist who lives in despair about the inhumanities she often must cover, slaughters of innocents - children and adults - that are somehow given legitimacy. Milena writes often to her daughter, each letter rich with poignant guidance on how to stay safe from dwelling helplessly in the darkest of thoughts. Elliott wishes Milena were writing to him. Drawn into the unhealed wounds in the lives of both mother and daughter, Elliott is forced to make a choice about what it means to be a survivor and who can and cannot be saved.
