Torn apart by the loss of a child, a couple slowly disintegrates. It is Christmas in Grinnell, a peaceful small town in the United States. Suddenly, Annie Whittaker, a five-year-old, is tragically taken by meningitis. In an instant, her family's cloudless life is plunged into sorrow and mourning. Liz, her mother, and John, her father, can do nothing but weep for their child forever. It is in pain and solitude that Tommy, the sister of the departed, will navigate the difficult transition from adolescence to adulthood... Unfortunately, this unjust death breeds discord: imperceptibly, Liz and John Whittaker drift apart, soon living like strangers in their once bustling home. But providence watches over them, placing Maribeth on Tommy's path. At sixteen years old, the young girl carries the result of a fleeting love affair... The friendship between the two young people quickly transforms into a deeper sentiment. And come the following Christmas, the gift that heaven so abruptly took away from the Whittakers will be returned to them as a miracle.
