Ten-year-old Suzanne gets swept up in her father's wild rock band as they hurtle toward fame and disaster. The sole witness to a shocking act of violence, she spends the next 29 years hiding from her traumatic past. But her father's sudden death drags the buried past back to the surface, forcing Suzanne to hit the road and search for answers. Pursued by her devoted husband, she hitches a ride with two vagabonds living in an old Airstream, rediscovering her long-lost thirst for adventure - and the woman she used to be. A taut, propulsive thriller about the cost of living in the shadow of a tragedy.
