Spoilers ahead

Hallam Foe, Jamie Bell, is a teenage loner who lives on his father Julius Foe, Ciarán Hinds’s expansive estate near Peebles. His private world centers on spying on people from a tree house, a habit that shapes how he reads others and negotiates danger. After his mother dies in a drowning two years earlier, Hallam grows convinced that Verity Foe, Claire Forlani, played a part in the tragedy, while his sister Lucy, Lucy Holt, leaves home to attend university. With Lucy gone and his father pressing him to “move on,” Hallam clings to his suspicions as a form of control, even as Verity and Julius push for a clean break.
