For thirteen years, Helen has lived a life of suburban predictability, bending to Robert's boorish demands and allowing her once independent spirit to retreat into the safety cage of mundane, dutiful routine. Over supper that evening she decides to throw off her role of domestic angel and dares to criticise his driving. Riled by his wife's comments over dinner, an irate Robert sets out the next morning to prove himself and is killed in a freak accident. Helen's life is about to transform. As she rekindles relationships with old friends and close family, and is imbued with a new sense of power and adventure, she discovers for the first time the possibility of a relationship on her own terms - as well as certain thrill she never quite believed possible... and the surprises are only just beginning...
