Most stepchildren have ambivalent attitudes towards their step parents. But Freddie Bradshaw has to find a solution to the disturbance a new parent bring into his life and he resorts to a plan of alienation and ultimate disposal of his father’s second wife, taking his own unwitting mother and younger brother with him on the journey, resulting in the downfall of an entire family. A moral tale of the darkest human emotions interlaced with psychological twists and turns that ultimately pays tribute to the transformational power of human healing and feeling in the face of destructive and unresolvable states of mind.
