"When you're doing it all, who's there to catch you when you fall?" -- Cover.
Shay Bastable is the woman in the middle. She is part of the sandwich generation - caring for her parents and her children, supporting her husband Bruce, holding them all together and caring for them as best she can. Then the arrival of a large orange skip on her mother's estate sets in motion a cataclysmic series of events which leads to the collapse of Shay's world. She is forced to put herself first for a change. But in order to move forward with her present, Shay needs to make sense of her past. And so she returns to the little village she grew up in, to uncover the truth about what happened to her when she was younger. And in doing so, she discovers that sometimes you have to hit rock bottom to find the only way is up.
