Synopsis:

An English couple (Joanne Whalley and Adrian Dunbar) who are desperate for children adopt two sisters from Canada whose mother had been murdered. When they get back to England, the elder child (brilliantly played by Hannah Lochner, above, with Whalley) throws tantrums and attacks a boy with a pair of scissors. The adoptive mother, however, is a child psychologist whose therapeutic instincts dovetail perfectly with the demands of a thriller. 'What if I take her back to Canada to where it happened,' she says. 'Maybe it will trigger a memory.' Hmm...

When an adopted daughter appears to be hiding a deadly secret, her mother is forced to find the strength to confront the girl's past, even though it means putting her own life at risk and jeopardizing everything she cherishes.

An Alberta small-town police chief officially finds no suspect in the bloody stabbing to death of 'working girl' Jane McGill. Her daughters are adopted two years later, through his friend Alvin, by a London couple who don't qualify yet for a correct procedure. Grace, the eldest, behaves viciously to Tess Palmer, who gave up her psychotherapist job to become their full-time mother, yet as sweetly as her little sister to new father Alfie Palmer, a struggling entrepreneur, but aggressively too toward his son Charlie, from an earlier marriage, and his grandmother. When the strain on the marriage becomes unbearable, Tess takes Grace to Alberta to examine suspicions about a dark past arisen during written overseas contacts.
