It should have been a perfect night out. Instead Mark and Donald collide with tragedy when they leave their favorite night spot. That dark October night three gay-bashers emerge from the gloom armed with slurs fists and an aluminum baseball bat.The hate crime leaves Donald lost and alone clinging to the memory of the only man he ever loved. He is haunted both literally and figuratively by Mark and what might have been. Trapped in a limbo offering no closure Donald cant immediately accept the salvation his new neighbor Walter offers. Walters kindness and patience are qualities his sixteen-year-old nephew Justin understands well. Walter provides the only sense of family the boys ever known. But Justin holds a dark secret that threatens to tear Donald and Walter apart before their love even has a chance to blossom.
