September 26th 1985 is Christine Shaw's wedding day and she is so happy, so lucky, so in love. Her mother is fussing over her like a mother hen and her father counters all her fears. 'Would Phil turn up?' Dad looked at me. I told him my thoughts. 'Come on, Chris, he'd be a fool not to,' Dad said, and he squeezed my hand. That was all the reassurance I wanted. Christine is marrying Phil Beacham, the man she loves, but does Phil really love her? What is the secret that Phil believes Christine knows and what will Christine's reaction be when she realises there are many facets to a marriage and that sometimes secrets can never be told, even to family? This is a story that spans 25 years. It takes you on a journey of love and life and sometimes it isn't easy.
