Synopsis

Lucy Streeter has never been a risk-taker - as a single mother with a struggling business, she's never felt brave enough. Her life is one of unfulfilled ambitions and missed opportunities as she spends her days making divine, flamboyant clothes that express all the passion she hides from the world. Until one evening when an enigmatic fortune-teller informs Lucy that her future is far from rosy - in fact, she doesn't have one! Naturally Lucy doesn't believe him, but once his other prophesies come scarily true, she starts to wonder if he could be right. His prediction pushes Lucy to throw caution to the wind.
