When I first saw Gabriel's picture in the newspaper, I thought that's not him, it's someone else. On the night of his 40th birthday party, Gabriel Atkinson's wife goes missing and his mother is attacked. When police arrive he confesses to the crimes. What made him do it? What was the tipping point for the successful man, the ultimate golden boy, that caused him to crack? This is the story of Gabriel, and of his mother, charting their lives from the time when she covered up a terrible crime and has done everything she can to protect her son. How far can a mother go with the wrong kind of love, such that it suffocates and destroys her most precious thing?
