Jenny and Mike Pitt, a wealthy marriage has just moved to Kensington, London. He is an ambitious and pragmatic businessman; she is a consultant for a prestigious design furniture store. They have two young daughters, Amy and Lucy, and lead a quiet, comfortable life. But soon their placid daily life is shaken when the Lucys nursery teacher thinks she sees in the behavior of the small signs of deep anxiety and discomfort. Mike must face, then, a terrible accusation and use the services of Steve Booth, a lawyer specializing in family law. Booth, used to deal with the poorest families in Brixton, always contemptuous of the rich, accepts, however, the case of Pitt. Was Jenny mistaken to believe in the innocence of her husband? Or should the social services act expeditiously to protect the little Lucy?
