Anselm Andros has always thought he had a normal life - confidante to his mother, Maria, confessor to his stepfather, Leo, a man haunted by the secrets of his past, and support to his sister Jasmine.

The voices from the past still echo in the present and Anselm must pull all the pieces together - whatever the cost.
