Country handyman Cedric O’Toole fi nds his life turned upside down when a stranger
named Steve shows up at his farm, claiming to be his brother. Steve believes they
have the same father, and he is on a quest to fi nd him, as Cedric’s unwed mother took
the secret of their father’s identity to her grave.
Together Steve and Cedric embark on a hunt for answers. At every turn, people seem
to have secrets: the police offi cer who investigated a suspicious death years ago and who
is now the chief near retirement, Cedric’s aunt Penny, who knows all the gossip in the
town but claims to know nothing about the death and, most alarming of all, Cedric’s
own grandparents and uncle, who insist no good will come of his questions.
What are they all hiding? And does Cedric really want to know the answers?
