Is anything really ever "all in the past"? Nell Crane is shocked when a one-time act of stupidity from her youth emerges as front-page news. Years ago, she built a wall of silence around herself and a serious lie. The barrier held firm until a reporter's sharp mind and pointed questions kicked a hole in it. With the whole wall now in danger of giving way, Nell risks full exposure for what she is: a criminal. Ethan Crane is a man of high principles who has believed his wife shares his values. When Nell's illicit act and continuing deceit are revealed, their lives take a devastating blow.
