Dara and Marie Durant have been dancers since they can remember. Now, they both teach in the family dance studio. When a suspicious accident occurs right before a big performance, the balance of sisterhood is threatened and family tensions rise.
Ballet flows through their veins; Dara and Marie Durant were homeschooled and trained by their mother. Decades later the Durant School of Dance is theirs. The two sisters, together with Charlie, Dara's husband and once their mother's prize student, inherited the school after their parents died in a tragic accident nearly a dozen years ago. Marie teaches the younger students; Dara trains the older ones; and Charlie, sidelined after years of injuries, rules over the back office. They keep the studio thriving-- until a suspicious accident occurs, just at the onset of the school's annual performance of The Nutcracker. Then an interloper arrives, and threatens the delicate balance. -- adapted from jacket
