Twenty years after Leo Quick was abandoned by his wife Fleur and left to raise their two small children, he learns that she has died in Kenya. Unbeknownst to him, she had a third child to whom Leo is father, Star. In his wife's absence, Leo had found new love with Denise, and together they raised Kester and Silvia. But the consequences of their childhood abandonment are playing out in the shape of addiction in the son's case, and feelings of loneliness in the daughter. With Star's arrival, long-buried hurts resurface as each of the Quicks confront the legacy of Fleur's desertion.
