Dr. Max Raphael (Bonneville) moves his wife Stella (Richardson) and young son Charlie (Gus Lewis) to the beautifully green London countryside when he assumes the position of Deputy Superitendent of a maximum-security psychiatric hospital. Bored and neglected, Stella begins a right-under-their-noses affair with handsome (and manipulative) inmate Edgar (Csokas), who has taken a sudden interest in horticulture. When their secret is discovered, the lives of all those involved spirals rapidly out of control. Based on the novel by Patrick McGrath. (Jack Kelley)
