Mending Broken Threads

Family secrets never stay buried for long…

Lynette Waller, a divorced Chicagoan, finds herself face to face with the demons of her past after her estranged mother passes away. Standing in her childhood home for the first time in decades, she learns of her mother's past mistakes and regret through a magic suitcase, a medium, and her equally estranged daughter, Ruby.

To her parents' disdain, Ruby Franklin traded security for chaos when she dropped out of college to pursue her modeling career in California. When an unexpected phone call sends her to Maine for her beloved grandmother's passing, she finds herself emotionally unprepared for a reunion with her mother.

The magic suitcase allows Lynette and Ruby to see into the matriarch's past, but what lessons do her secrets hold? As they search for answers, they find that sometimes the truth is hiding in plain sight. With the help of Mema's memories, will this mother-daughter duo heal old wounds and find the love buried within their past?
