Eve and Neil live in the beautiful Cumbrian town of Tarnside. After years of trying for a baby, they are in the final stages of adopting four-year-old Milly. They just have to pass the "settling in" period—three months of living together as a family under watchful eyes—and then they can make it official. For Eve, her heartbreak is nearly at an end. She now has this perfect little girl in her life, a little girl who calls her mummy. But Eve's dream of a happy family is fragile. Any hint of trouble and social services will take Milly away. One misunderstanding, one rumor, one accusation, could smash Eve's family to pieces.
