Kate and John Coleman are rebuilding their troubled marriage after
suffering the loss of a still born baby. Kate had a drinking
problem, but is in therapy and doing well being sober for one year.
The couple decide to adopt a child & when they meet the nine-year-
old Russian girl, Esther, at the St. Marina Orphanage, they
immediately fall in love with the young orphan. Their young
son, Daniel, is hostile towards his new sister; but their deaf-mute
daughter, little Max, is enchanted with her - at first. Eventually, Kate
begins to feel that Esther is manipulative and possibly even
psychologically disturbed. John refuses to listen to his wife's
misgivings, and the wounds in their marriage reopen. Kate calls
Sister Abigail at the orphanage, and the nun informs her that Esther
has a troubled and mysterious history. Kate delves further into
