They all have different answers based on their experiences, but what was the purpose of Alicia's question? She was separated from her twin brother, Tom, when they were eight. Tom graduated into a life of violence, while Alice found a life of fortune and wealth in her partner, Mary. But when Mary unexpectedly passes away, a new person enters Alice's life - someone who seems to know every detail about her. Soon, her past and present lives collide with life-changing consequences.
