Gracie Burton is a grandmother living quietly in Devon. She has rarely left the village over the past 40 years. Her daughter, Carina, is immensely high-powered, with her own fast-paced business in London.

They have no idea that Gracie is harbouring the secret of an extraordinary life that preceded them....
