‘The Bracelet’

Monica Grainger’s life is upended when Harry Powell, the man she believes is her father, fleetingly appears at her grandma’s funeral. In the hope of understanding the past, she negotiates a truce with her prickly tight-lipped mother, Celia, and re-examines a decades-old tragedy involving Harry’s sister.

Just as Monica finds the courage to reach out to Harry, Celia gives her a silver bracelet that triggers alarming questions.

As she unravels the mysteries of the bracelet, her mother’s behaviour alters. Will these puzzles derail her dreams of connecting with Harry and his family?

In 2020, Caryl’s daughter, Megan, takes up the search for her missing uncle. Confronted by her own secret, will she ignore it or will she remember Caryl’s lifelong torment and avoid the mistakes of the past?
