Blood is thicker than water, but just how thick is the bond that holds a
mother and her daughters together? Could it snap under the weight of an
unforgivable mistake, or does it dissolve under the pressure of a
lifelong betrayal? The Long Way Home offers us a keyhole view into the
lives of three women with a shared past that both unites them and
threatens to destroy them. It’s a journey that they have been putting
off all their lives, until now...
