In the wake of infidelity and miscarriage, Eve juggles grief and dissatisfaction in an unfamiliar land rife with passion, opportunity and fantasy. Eve meets Giovanni who offers her an escape from her woes – woes she tries to keep hidden from everyone else – but soon all healing and delusion is undone when the reality of her marriage seeps into her newfound haven.

Unfolding in the fragile minutes before sunrise on summer solstice in a sterile home in suburban London, Blue, a young woman fresh from her latest stint in rehab, clashes with Hutton, her estranged uncle hardened by his own vitriol, and Liz, an intermediary caught in the crossfire. As the night dissolves into dawn, they confront the life and legacy of Blue's father – a man whose decade-long absence echoes louder than his presence ever did. With the longest day of the year stretching ahead, the trio unearth betrayals, inherited grief and aching loss.
