As the hours tick by, Dylan's red baseball cap is found on the beach and Faye finds herself being questioned by the police. They want to know everything about the man she married - is Faye ready to face her husband's dark past? Or will she have to confront her own secrets first?

And just how far will a mother go to save her only child?
