If I Should Lose You

Camille works as an organ transplant nurse, counselling families through heart-rending decisions. But at home, her own daughter Addie is critically ill. When an invitation to curate an exhibit arrives from artist Jack Darcy, her late mother’s lover, Camille is plunged into unresolved questions about her childhoood and her mother’s life.

As Addie gets sicker, Camille wonders how far she will go to save her child – and how much of herself she can give when she has everything to lose.
