Angelica has lived her entire life in the shadow of a death she didn't cause—her mother's. Blamed by her father and despised by her brother, Christopher, she clings to a single, fading memory of his kindness. When their cousin Madison arrives and steals his affection, Christopher's wish that Angelica had died instead becomes a cruel mantra. His wish is tragically granted when Angelica is diagnosed with terminal cancer. But in the crushing silence after her death, Christopher is left with the devastating truth of his own cruelty, and the realization that the love he withheld is the only thing that could have saved them both.
