This is the story of 2 little girls - 5 1/2 & 10 - who are effectively orphaned when their father kills their mother. Lulu, the older daughter, goes for help while Merry stays. When Lulu returns, she sees their father has attempted to murder Merry, too, and then tried to commit suicide.
As time goes on, Merry visits and corresponds with their father. Lulu will have nothing to do with him.
Will they ever come to terms with their past? Will he ever get out of jail? If he does - then what?
