Sean Callaway chose music over firefighting, making him the outsider in his family of first responders. While he performs as a carefree rock musician, Sean carries the weight of witnessing a childhood friend's death twenty years ago. He has never told anyone what he saw that day. Jessica Schilling arrives in San Francisco as a young widow with her six-year-old stepson, hoping to reconnect the boy with his identical twin brother Brandon. She rents a house near the Callaway family and begins cleaning out the garage for the previous owner. There she discovers evidence of an old secret that someone considers worth killing for. The discovery forces Sean to confront the memories he has spent two decades avoiding. He must face what really happened to his friend and use that knowledge to protect Jessica from whoever wants the past to stay buried.
