What They Left Behind

Ben and Gennie are orphans who are beaten by their older brother and then left for dead in a town a thousand miles away from their home. With the help of a middle aged couple who live in a remote cabin, they are adopted by a young couple and make their way to San Francisco.

Years later, Ben realizes his dream of owning a restaurant, but still yearns for the love he has lost. Not only is he keeping secrets, he soon discovers his family has been also hiding things from him.

Gennie, ever the tomboy, has to fight tooth and nail in her male dominated profession. Eventually strikes out on her own. Little does she know that her biggest heartache leads to a new career and a new love.

While trying to bring their parents' bodies to California, they uncover something so unexpected it turns their world upside down. Will they ever be able to reconcile the past and rebuild something new from it? Or will it leave them shattered like their city after the earthquake?
