Description: Joe Keller, a successful businessman, lives comfortably with his wife, Kate, and son, Chris, in a suburban American neighborhood. They have only one sadness in their lives – the loss of their other son, Larry, who went missing in World War II. After three years, Kate still clings to the hope that her son is alive. A storm blows down the tree planted in Larry’s memory and a devastating family secret is uprooted, setting the characters on a terrifying journey towards truth.
