Some truths cost more than silence.
2014: Sixty and widowed, Irene leaves her farm for a fresh start in a Tasmanian riverside town. She dreams of new friendships, a gift shop, perhaps even love with the charming Max. But she carries more than grief into her new beginning. Years earlier, while battling cancer and fearing cognitive decline, Irene began keeping notes to test her memory - records that revealed more than she ever intended. Now, as her illness returns, Irene must choose: share the devastating truth she has uncovered, or keep it hidden to protect her family.
2024: After Irene's death, her daughter Helen discovers the notebooks. The fragments reveal glimpses of the bold, audacious mother she remembers from her youth-yet written by a woman grown secretive and withdrawn. As Helen attempts to unravel the cryptic messages, one question will not let her rest: What was Irene hiding?
