Tess, who is 18 years old and played by Kelly Van Der Burg, is going through the motions of her life as if she were a ghost because of the loss she has suffered. Listening to the music of Danny Sharpe (Joel Thomas Hynes), a local hero who has been away from his hometown for almost 20 years, is the one and only thing that brings her any sense of solace. Tess is taken aback when she wakes up one day to discover him in her kitchen, which ignites a spark of life in her that spirals out of her control.
