Kate and Liz were brought up in the small seaside town of Whitby, and Liz couldn't wait to get away as soon as she left school. They haven't met up in eighteen years and it is not until their mother dies and the house needs to be sold that they finally see one another again. It is clear that their relationship is strained. Kate feels as though she has had to be the sensible sister, not moving far from Whitby, supporting her artist husband Duncan and dealing with her wayward daughter Perida. Liz's life has also not turned out as she wanted, she's worked as an escort, been turned off men, is a failed poet and her partner Louise has dumped her for another woman.
The sisters are uneasy in each other's company, each of them have issues that are unresolved and it is clear that they have hurt each other in the past.
As they clear their mother's attic they come across a trunk of old letters and notebooks. These belong to their grandmother Laura, who they believe died in 1925. It becomes clear when they investigate further that they have been lied to for many years. Laura was accused of murdering their grandfather and her diaries reveal that she was a victim of domestic violence. The sisters put aside their differences to investigate what really happened all those years ago, and it is then that they discover so much about their family, things that explain and add to their own characters and experiences.
