Send me a picture of you wherever you are right now.

53-year-old Carmel is furious at her husband for dying. Grief-stricken and holding everything together for her adult sons, she’s never felt more alone. But as spring arrives in Dublin, she meets fellow widower Graham on a dating app. He makes her feel truly alive for the first time in years.

Across the sea in London, twenty-something Lisa devotes her life to helping people. Beneath the gleaming facades of Westminster, she cares for the homeless at work, and for her troubled sister at home. But Lisa has a secret that sustains her, and it’s growing more dangerous by the day.

When the two women’s lives collide, it brings a twisted connection that neither of them could have imagined – and cannot be undone.
