But neither of them have any plans of making the ultimate sacrifice to get their hands on it.So when Bryan Deane goes missing at sea – presumed dead – it looks as though the Deanes might just pull off the scam.But there are two factors that Laura does not count on; Martha, their fourteen year old daughter who refuses to believe she will never see her father again, and Anna Faust, childhood friend and now a Detective Sergeant – yet another woman who is unable to accept the idea of spending the rest of her life without Bryan.
