What happens when a lonely old woman finds a distraught teenager, who claims to be her granddaughter, sitting on her front porch?
This is the story of Rose and Hannah.
Rose, elderly and alone, and Hannah, scared and hurt. Together they must face both their own personal tragedies and move forward together. They prove that sometimes family comes in the most unusual forms.
Set in Newfoundland, this is a story of strong women. Hannah seeks out Rose when the unthinkable happens to her and she needs somewhere to turn. Her mother is unreachable and Hannah really needs a woman to talk to. Rose sets out to help her through a difficult time, but worries that Hannah will want nothing to do with her once she learns about the past - after all, it's the reason Hannah, her father and brother, never knew that Rose was still alive.
Together they create something that they both desperately need: a family. But will Rose's secrets destroy everything?
