Returning to his psychiatric practice in New York, Erik sets about reading his father''s memoir, hoping to discover the man he never fully understood.
At the same time, another woman enters Erik''s lonely, divorced life - a beautiful Jamaican who moves into his garden flat with her small daughterAs Erik gets drawn into the cat-and-mouse tactics of someone who appears to be stalking her, he finds out that his sister Inga is also being threatened, by a journalist in possession of a wounding secret from her past.
