Charlotte (Lottie) Tells is a mother of three children. She lost her oldest child, and only son Freddie Tells, a few days shy of his 18th birthday. Her two close friends Ellen and Debbie are more than supportive, as they too lost a child, a daughter called Maria. But in this town, there is a tradition that happens after a young person had died before their time. If you are a parent that just lost their child at a young age, a book is delivered to your home, an anonymous gift sent by a generous Patron that predicts the future that could've been... This book is a gateway for you to see what your child would have done with their lives if they were still alive, and it could show anything; a lot of people take this seriously in this town. It can give you comfort or can unveil your worst nightmare. Whatever you choose to believe.
