Six months later Caroline and Philip marry but it is not long before she realises that people are not always as they appear and that Philip has been hiding a secret . . .

As the years slip by Caroline's marriage is plagued by fears that she made a horrible mistake and a tragic turn of events takes her life down an unexpected path.
