Seven Hook children live in a dilapidated Victorian house in suburban London. Older children help to care for their invalid mother, whose chronic illness has led to her to convert to fundamentalist religion. When their mother dies suddenly, the children realise that they may be split up and sent to orphanages. They decide to conceal their mother's death and carry on with their daily routine as if she were still alive. They secretly bury their mother in the back yard at night, and convert the garden shed into a shrine.
