What if your whole life was a lie?
Twelve-year-old Cate has never left her village. She's never had a friend. She's never even hugged her mother.
Imogen, Cate's mum, spent her youth traveling the country with her father. He believed she had a gift and used her for his own gain. With her innocence snatched away, Imogen vowed to build an idyllic and safe childhood for her daughter.
But Cate soon becomes curious about life outside their home, and Imogen begins to question if closing themselves off from society was the right decision. When Zach, Imogen's enigmatic ex-lover, returns to the village, years of deception come to light.
Why has Imogen never touched her daughter? Is Zach responsible for a heinous crime? And what is Cate truly capable of?
