She's trapped inside her own body, screaming to be heard.
Ruby (Roo) is Jewel's sister and best friend. She was the one who texted Jewel and inadvertently caused the accident. Now, she must grapple with her overwhelming guilt and her growing feelings for Jewel's boyfriend, Nathan- the only person who seems to get what Roo is going through.
But Roo might be the only person who can solve the mystery of her sister's condition-who can see through Jewel's silence to the truth underneath. ~
