The lives of three very different young mothers intersect in a parent Grief Group that meets in a local church. Still reeling from their losses and crimes committed against their children, the women are hungry for answers, understanding and purpose – and yes, for fun. But as their friendship grows, so does their questionable behavior -- and their suspicions about each other. Were any of them complicit in their children’s deaths? And are they lying to the Grief Group, or just to themselves?
