After his wife gives birth to twins, a son and a daughter with Down syndrome, David chooses to keep his daughter's existence a secret from his wife, setting in motion a series of events that will test the limits of love, loyalty, and forgiveness. The novel explores themes of family secrets, the impact of choices, and the societal attitudes towards disability.
