69 parts Complete MatureNora is crippled by anxiety that lurks beneath a Good Girl shell. Lucas is drowning under the weight of his rage and depression. They've been best friends since they were babies living on the same suburban street and have never needed anything but each other, until they find a new method of escape.
Gus is a poly-addict whose drug of choice is meth. He's been living on LA's infamous Skid Row for months. Being on his own is nothing new, and he's survived for years on the streets of Chicago and LA, trying to avoid being put back into foster care. But the system eventually catches up to him. When he meets Lucas and Nora at a court ordered rehab center for teens, he begins to question whether or not sobriety is possible for him... if it means confronting his past.
This story was inspired by the heroin epidemic in suburban America.
