The Symington Parents... Marilyn Symington strives to be a good mother and the family peacemaker. But when lingering health issues send her to her husband's business partner Dr. John Hazelton, she is drawn into an illicit relationship which threatens the foundation of all she's built. Ronald Symington is a well-respected doctor, but he is burdened by problems at the Symington Medical Center and the growing family friction, with only the apparition of his late father to rely on for advice. Looking for leverage, Ron hires a PI to investigate his uncooperative partner, but what will he do with the shocking secret he discovers? The Symington Children... Richard, the oldest of the Symington offspring, followed Ronald into medicine, but he can't escape his father's shadow. He also has a hidden gambling addiction, which leads him to perform illegal abortions to pay off his debts, though he tries to convince himself he's helping his patients-prostitutes-by saving them from back-alley butchers. Wilson is a true middle child, lost in the shuffle, fighting for recognition and approval, and always feeling he comes up short. After falling in with drug dealers, he spent time in prison, but is now seeking redemption by secretly working with the FBI to catch the real offenders. Maggie, the youngest, is a Registered Nurse, but she's always looking for something more, something...exciting. She and her lover experiment with drugs and sexual fantasies, until one particular fantasy turns terrifying, forcing her to reexamine her priorities. Can the damaged family which found its wealth and social standing in medicine somehow heal and find peace? Or are their sins too numerous and egregious to forgive?
