Mary Marshall, serving a six year term for accidental manslaughter, is given a Christmas furlough from prison to visit her closest relatives, her uncle and his family in a small Midwestern town.

Although his physical wounds have healed, he is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and is subject to panic attacks.
