________________________________________________________________
Wythenshawe, South Manchester. 1985. The Dodds family once ruled
Manchester’s underworld; now the men are dead, leaving three
generations of women trapped in a house haunted by violence,
harbouring an unregistered baby and the ghost of a murdered lover.
Over the course of a few days, Nedra, Carol and Jan must each
confront the true legacy of the men who have defined their lives;
and seize the opportunity to break the cycle for good.
