Gabriel's mother died when he was fifteen. He was forced to drop out of school to care for his younger siblings, Jordan, Phoebe, and the twins, Rose and Liam. Forced into a line of work that he detests, that barely makes him enough money to live and which is gradually eroding his spirit, Gabriel is sinking deeper into misery. His siblings have no idea what he does to earn money, and Gabriel has no way of getting out. He can't afford to stop working. And he doesn't want the children to find out how he degrades himself for their benefit. Until, one day, a woman called Angela makes an proposition that Gabriel can't refuse.
