In just a few days, Peter McDowell loses everything he has earned by working hard – his fortune, his house, his existence as a successful bank investor. As if that wasn't enough, what's to come is even worse. The stock market crash not only brings Peter into the situation of becoming unemployed, but causes a rift in his marriage that he cannot repair. Deprived of any material means, he has only one place to retreat: a lakeside cottage he inherited from his parents, who left most of their modest fortune to Peter's twin brother. Having no other choice, the prodigal son returns home.
A beloved doctor in a small town, a devoted family man and a pillar of the community, Michael McDowell helps others without regard to personal gain. But only Peter knows how Michael manipulated their parents when the boys were young, which eventually led to Peter's departure. At first, he fears meeting Michael, but to his surprise, their reunion is tender and genuine. Only later, when Peter examines his mother's diaries, does the truth come out, and understanding and panic begin to creep in. Who is his twin brother? Is it the real façade it displays or is something scary hiding underneath it? Is it imagination or a reality too frightening to believe?
In a race against time, Peter puts aside all caution to find out the truth. What they discover will forever change the lives of the two brothers, the lives of their children and an entire city.
