Eighteen years later, Bandy is released from prison. His
parents are gone, but on the derelict family ranch, Bandy faces a
different reunion. Tracy, his now teenaged son, has come to claim the
father he’s never known. Hot on his heels is his mum and Bandy’s
ex-wife. All three are damaged, hardened, haunted. But warily,
desperately, they move in a slow dance around each other, trying to
piece back together a family that never was; trying to discover if they
belong together at all.
