But can either be trusted as their pasts and hidden agendas rise to challenge everything they have ever believed about themselves—and each other? The lovers push boundaries, hoping to find some solace, while ex's, lawyers, financiers, and even their own children, push them to the limits. And as they do, what deadly sins will each commit, believing it will liberate them from the trappings and exposures that are holding them prisoners?
