"If I hide, I'm safe. No one can find me, if no one can see me. I'd be better off in the dark than in the open, where I'm vulnerable to anything. That's never going to happen to me." °°° Those words seemed like a distant memory, fading into the lost abyss of nothingness. Thinking you're safer when you're not being noticed, when sometimes you aren't even safe being alone. Payton Dust never thought she was hiding behind the shadow of her father - Michael Dust - until she was shown the light within the dark. She will see things she's never seen; do things she's never done; and know things she's never known. All because of two girls she met - Jackie Jeffin and Naomi Maynn.
