Henri Skinner is trapped in his body. He is in an induced coma after a near-fatal accident. His 13-year old son Sam, whom he has never met, comes every day without his family's knowledge to try and know the father he never had. Henri's other visitor is Eddie (Edwina) the love of his life as he is the love of her life but neither ever admitted it to each other. This is a touching love story about redemption, sacrifice and never giving up hope. Through the eyes of Sam and Eddie, we get an idea of the real Henri Skinner. Sam is a true delight - his obvious love for a man he doesn't know plus his awkward friendship with a young comatose ballerina and dependence on Eddie to help him understand his father. As we watch Sam and Eddie traverse the strange world of comatose patients, we are left with a sense of unfinished business and desperation of the lives they should have had. Touching characters in true Nina George style caught in a love story they didn't write and a battle they are determined to win.
