Isolated, broken, and haunted by things she can't seem to escape, she keeps her head down and secrets buried until a chance encounter threatens to reveal everything.
When a spilt drink and a cruel comment draw unwanted attention to the quiet, beautiful girl no one really knows, Kathy Sherman senses something isn't right. Kathy drags her brother Jace- a high school football star with his own demons- into the mess, and what they discover shatters them.
As secrets' surfaces and loyalties are tested, Callie's world begins to crack open. But freedom comes at a price. In a night of terror, with courage she didn't know she had and help from unexpected places, Callie must fight for her life and confront the horrors that have stolen her childhood.
