After 25 years of marriage Stella has adapted her life satisfactorily around her husband's workaholic hours and his apparent disinterest in herself and their son. Until.....one day her world comes crashing down when he's forced to reveal that he's borrowed large sums of money, supposedly for his business, using their home as collateral without her knowledge. The bank is calling in the debt, which opens a floodgate of fury when Stella realises the extent of his deception. She sets out on a path of discovery, but she too has a guilty secret.....and then there's Carla, Alistair's partner in crime, to deal with.
