Summary

Annie is 5 when her sister Gemma leaves for school and never returns. The family's lives are changed forever with Gemma's disappearance and Annie feels neglected and unloved. When she is just 16, she decides she can no longer live in the shadow of her perfect but absent sister and she leaves home, falling in and out of jobs and relationships, her resentment for Gemma always there, bubbling under the surface. Many years later she returns home to care for her mother, ill with cancer. Her anger only grows when she sees Gemma's room still kept as a shrine while hers is now her mother's sewing room, but as she cares for her mum she begins to soften and egged on by her best friend Priti she realises she has to uncover what happened to Gemma, for all their sakes.
