themselves torn apart by grief and turning for comfort to Daniel, the
troubled teenage boy who lives next door.
Having experienced their tragedy first hand, Daniel shares in
their grief in a way that creates an individual bond with each member

sexuality makes Daniel an obvious target for her affections. Graham is
the grieving father who recognises Daniel as knowing his dead son in a
way that he never could and now never will.
