Living in London, with her husband, Claire finds herself at a crossroads. Enjoying her social circle of friends of a similar age, she is also drawn from it - in part due to her and her and Anthony's desire and struggle for children and also reflecting on her own journey from Europe to a city still coming to terms with its terrorist attack several years later. Through Claire's work, she meets Nora and, allowed to spend an increasing time looking after her, their bond raises questions that Claire must find the answers to. Looking back on her life, from successful ballet dancer and against the background of a world altering irrecoverably to the moment that changed the course of her life, she realises she must take control once more of her path.
