After a car crash kills her mother, seventeen-year-old Maeve is left haunted by what really happened that night. Sent to live with her estranged father, his cheerful new wife, and a baby brother she refuses to acknowledge, Maeve is consumed by grief and guilt. At first, Maeve clings to what little she remembers\u2014rain, laughter, headlights. But when questions arise in court, a buried truth starts to resurface: she was the one driving. As the memory returns in pieces,<\/p>\n

Maeve is forced to confront her role in the accident and the unbearable weight of it.She confesses to her father, bracing for anger\u2014but finds comfort instead. Even so, the emotional distance between them remains,until Maeve overhears a late-night conversation revealing just how much her father struggles to connect with her.When Maeve finds an old letter from her mom\u2014one filled with doubts and hopes about the future\u2014it becomes a turning point. With quiet courage, she begins to let herself grieve, to reach for connection, and to find home in the unlikeliest of places.She chooses healing:<\/p>\n

bonding with her baby brother, helping Julia in the kitchen, and painting a mural in Duncan\u2019s room. Slowly, the house that once felt like a stranger\u2019s becomes hers. And as she says goodbye to her mom one final time, Maeve begins to believe that maybe\u2014just maybe\u2014she\u2019s exactly where she\u2019s meant to be.<\/p>\n
