Summary
Christmas was supposed to be quiet.
Instead, it brings old fears to the surface, a fire that hits too close to home, a little boy who starts asking the wrong questions, and two women who love each other enough to break trying to protect their family.
When Maya begins preparing for the worst after a devastating call, Carina misreads the signs and makes a choice she thinks will keep Liam safe. A single misunderstanding spirals into silence, fear, and the kind of pain that only comes from loving someone whose job carries danger home with it.
But even in the darkest nights, some lights don’t burn; they guide you back.
