Anchored by Diane Kruger as Jess and Jo Joyner as Liz, the ensemble cast also features Shelley Conn (Bridgerton), Emily Taaffe (The Rising), and JJ Feild (Austenland). The story follows four women bound by a decade-long friendship, until one shocking incident changes everything. When Jess (Kruger) rushes her baby to the ER with an unexplained injury, Liz (Joyner), the attending doctor, faces an impossible choice that sparks a devastating chain of events.
