Full synopsis

Spanning sixty years and set against the backdrops of WWII, the Coronation of Elizabeth II and the subsequent Diamond Jubilee, two women try to find the happiness and harmony they crave.

Julia, stifled in a loveless marriage, is driven to commit the ultimate transgression and set in motion a series of events which will lead either to self-destruction or salvation.

Lucy is tormented by the spectre of the other woman and desperate to uncover the secrets between her husband and the beautiful Grace Irvine. Determined to put an end to a lifetime of deception and lies, she learns that the truth lurks in a dark and sinister place and that despite the passing of years, Grace is as dangerous as ever.

As fate plays its hand and the lives of the two women collide, a story emerges of a murderous obsession, cold and calculated revenge and the irrepressible power of love.
