Synopsis
The perfect life of head teacher Holly Connors has been disturbed by ten-year-old Harry Meadows, who’s been going off the rails since his mum died.

Despite Will’s insistence that it’s none of her business, Holly just can’t walk away. But professional detachment turns into emotional investment and Holly begins to worry if this is really just about Harry?You May Also Be Interested In...
