About this listen

Gryff Morgan, a church-going Kentucky family man, hides a dark secret. Living under an assumed identity to avoid extradition to Argentina, not even his twin sons, Travis and Chase, know their comfortable lives are built on the proceeds of drug smuggling. Only his wife, Gwenna Garland—a failed singer—knows the truth of his Welsh origins.

In South Wales, Huw and Rhys grow up believing their father died at sea before they were born. Their mother, Shirley, was left heartbroken, never revealing she was pregnant when tragedy drove him away. Three decades later, during NATO peacekeeping in Sarajevo, a chance meeting between Chase and a British soldier sets events in motion, bringing the four brothers’ worlds together. Betrayal and an explosive love triangle lead to a journey from Kentucky to South Wales, where family matriarch Lowri still waits for her missing son.

As secrets unravel, Gryff and Gwenna’s daughter, country music superstar Greer Garland, takes on the task of reuniting her fractured family. But can love and forgiveness heal decades of lies, or will the past prove too devastating to overcome?
