Before he knows it, Jason finds himself incarcerated on a negligent homicide charge, while Mckenzie, and his mother, Amanda, are left to pick up the pieces. A look into the other side of addiction. From the prospective of the ones who love the addict, all of the endeavors they must endure, and the metaphorical "love affair" they're loved one has with the Devil.
