When Isabel Burley returns home to care for her mother, who
is suffering from Alzheimer's, she finds a bemused, angry
old woman, prey to the dangers of failing memory, the
inability to run her household—and the local villains who
are eyeing her isolated home. But as the locals close in,
Isabel finds herself struggling with her own emotions. She
thinks she has come home to do some good, but is she really
looking for the affection she lacked as a child? Alienated
by her mother's growing eccentricity, Isabel becomes locked
in a relationship of love, conflict, and simmering violence,
with roots that go deep into the past.
