BLURB

Socially isolated. Social anxiety. Depression.

Diagnosed with all three disorders at just eighteen, Moira Neverson faces a future forever altered, and her desperate parents quickly admit her to a prestigious psychiatric hospital in San Antonio, Texas, hoping for a solution.

Despite six years of treatment showing only modest progress, Moira's psychiatrist ultimately decides she is fit to return to society. Now twenty-four, Moira has adapted to her solitary existence and views the outside world as unfamiliar and intimidating. She sees isolation as her most effective way to protect herself from the chaos and unpredictability of society.

But her life takes an unexpected turn when a distressed teenage runaway and an injured ex-convict appear on her doorstep, threatening to disrupt her carefully maintained solitude.
