Penny Calvin has questions.

Placed for adoption sixteen years ago, she's desperate to get to know the mother she's never met.

Mika Suzuki just wants to hide.

Jobless, single and living in a chaotic flat share, she can't bear her daughter knowing her life is a mess. So, when Penny gets in touch, Mika tells a few white lies, pretending to have it all - a career, partner and money.

Keeping up the pretence over the phone is one thing. But when Penny and her widowed adoptive father Thomas spring a visit on Mika, things get complicated.

By coming clean about the secrets in her past, will Mika finally get the life she dreamed of?

Or will she lose it all?
