Synopsis

Rural Michigan. In the wake of his father's death, Neil Mercer -- a wounded man who has spent years armoring himself with an all-too-effective combination of success, workaholism and charm -- must travel back home to the Midwest for the first time in years to help sell his estranged father's summer cottage. When his younger brother, James, is unexpectedly called back to Chicago for work, Neil finds himself marooned in the house with Rebecca Brandt, James's fiancée, a wickedly smart, fiercely independent woman whose impressive façade matches Neil's in its power to mask the damaged, desperate spirit hiding beneath.
