Whenever Marian Rafferty's American-born children asked about her Irish childhood, Marian made her past sound as bland as a piece of Wonder bread. Marian never mentioned that she'd smuggled explosives across the border or that her eldest son's father wasn't her husband of more than forty years or that she'd murdered her best friend.
Or that her name wasn't even Marian.
For over forty years Marian Rafferty has buried herself in suburban busyness in an attempt to forget her past. But now that she is facing a potentially fatal breast cancer diagnosis, her daughter is close to uncovering her secrets and the ghost of her murdered former best friend has begun to haunt her, Marian must decide whether to admit her guilt and tell her family the truth or, as she did forty years earlier, slip the hangman's noose and escape detection.
