Mersey Square, Stockport, 1984. Can she find the courage to overcome a devastating tragedy? Sammy and Roy Cantello have been inseparable since they were teenage sweethearts. Married for twenty years, their eldest son is the apple of Sammy's eye. When the police arrive, telling her there's been a devastating crash, it is the worst night of her life. Her boy had always been such a safe driver, what could possibly have gone wrong? As her firstborn fights for his life and Sammy searches for answers, she realises there's only one thing that could have been distracting her child: his father Roy's recent affair with another woman, Olivia Grant. Sammy thought their relationship was over for good, but is there something Roy hasn't told her? Desperate for answers about her son's accident, she goes to see Olivia. But as Sammy enters Olivia's small flat, she is shocked to her very core: Olivia's rounded belly tells her this woman is carrying her husband's child. As her own son slips away, Sammy is consumed by grief, but she realises that the other woman is struggling too. When Olivia decides she is not the best person to raise her child and begs for support, Sammy knows that her son would want her to help.
