The press quickly expose the details of Blakes past, military service in Afghanistan, and the violent circumstances of his conception. Three days after the crash, the FAA reveal the cause of the devastating plane crash, that shocks people world-wide. With the love and support of her dear friend Grace, Meredith does her best to cope, despite the scrutiny from the press and the people in her town. To make matters worse, Merediths alcoholic brother Darien, who she hasnt seen in eighteen years comes to live with her, in hopes that she can save his life from his debilitating disease. She is skeptical about their reunion, because she doesnt want to relive the pain of her abusive childhood, and battle a disease that has dominated her brothers life for over twenty-five years.
