Clementine Black has spent her life surviving - first enduring years of abuse at the hands of her mother, Ophelia, then fleeing high society after killing her to protect her newborn daughter, Alice. Alone and on the run, Clem finds unexpected salvation with Dutch Van Der Linde's gang, after they discover her and her infant hiding in the wilderness. Brought into their camp, Clem is given a chance at a new life among a ragtag group of outlaws and misfits - a life where, for the first time, she feels safe and truly at home.
While raising Alice and doing odd chores around camp, Clem slowly finds herself drawn to the gang's charismatic leader, Dutch Van Der Linde. Against the backdrop of danger, loyalty, and the promise of freedom, a romance blossoms - offering Clem something she never dared dream of: love, belonging, and a future worth fighting for.
