A woman escapes from an Institution for the Criminally Insane. Having no memory, she lives on the streets. Flashes appear --- glimpses of her past. She remembers. She is Sara McCormick, doctor's wife, and only child of Bob and Joan Wilkinson. The Wilkinson's are kind, compassionate, civic-minded people and wonderful parents. Life for Sara appears perfect, until her parents are killed in a car crash. Sara and her husband Dan are devastated by the loss. Months after her parents' death, Sara continues to grieve and struggles to cope. In an attempt to overcome her anguish, she and her toddlers travel to a cabin by a lake. Dan is to join her in a few days. Just hours after her arrival, Dan is contacted by the police who report a hysterical woman by the lake screaming over and over again, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have." She is incoherent. The woman is Sara and the twins are missing.As the story unfolds, Dan questions whether the Wilkinson's car crash was really an accident: Was the brake line cut? Is the crash and subsequent deaths related to the disappearance of the twins? The truth begins to unfold. The suspects are the obvious and the unobvious. Characters are from many walks of life: professionals, the homeless, blue-collar workers, and the religious. Intermingled in the plot are situations that illustrate how "Lessons Learned" as children influence who we become.
