Synopsis
Lil and Irene are bound together by the ghost of Rose, a dark-haired girl with a snub nose and an extra chromosome. This is the story of the last 24 hours of Lil's life, the 40 years that Irene has been an only child, and Rose's sudden death. After a life-time of blame and lies, the truth about Rose is finally revealed and the tragedy of Irene's lifelong devotion and her long dead grandmother's deceit brought into the open.
