In New York City, a crime lord's right-hand man is seduced by a woman seeking retribution.

A mother, enduringly traumatized by the disappearance of her three-year old daughter 15 years ago, has cut herself off from her ex-husband and son. However, when a troubled young woman with a checkered past enters her life, old psychic wounds painfully resurface, as does the illogical and increasingly irrational hope that the young woman may be the daughter she lost so long ago.

A murder mystery surfaces in the midst of a heated mayoral election in a quaint New England town.
