Synopsis
Dying at twenty-four is unnatural, but Simon did, leaving his sister alone and haunted by the past. Clutching at refuge where she can find it, she tries to decide whether secrets are better exposed, or buried. Then an unexpected trip to Orkney offers a change in her tense and frightening world, and perhaps an answer to the question, what do you do when you don't know what to do?
