Will past secrets resurface over a long hot summer as Kitty Cox lets an old friend back into her home?

Kitty Cox is adjusting to a new life alone. She's spent several years caring for her ailing husband, but now she's having to adjust to a life without him.

When Kitty's old friend Vee reappears in the village in desperate need of a place to stay, Kitty quickly sees an obvious solution to both their dilemmas. She invites Vee, her new partner Raf, and young son Bear to move in with her for the summer.

Kitty relishes the company, but there are ripples beneath the surface of her old friend. As a long, hot summer unfolds, tensions build and secrets simmer. Has Vee told Kitty the whole truth? And will her generous offer of help turn out to be the biggest mistake she has ever made?
