Under The Surface

In a world that often demands conformity, 16 year old Jordan Grayson feels adrift. As an intersex girl she faces challenge after challenge everyday, she also grapples with the scars of her father's abuse-both physical and emotional. Moving to a new neighbourhood brings not only the chance for a fresh start but also the curious gazes of neighbours who notice her rebellious spirit.
Jordan Grayson excels in school, her grades a testament to her intelligence, yet her heart beats to the rhythm of defiance and dreams of a life filled with love. She finds solace in music, sports, and the vibrant universes of video games and books, longing for the warmth of a family that embraces her for who she truly is.
As Jordan Grayson battles her past and seeks acceptance, she must confront not only her father's oppressive influence but also the social expectations that threaten to stifle her authentic self. Will she rise above the surface, reclaiming her identity and finding the connection she craves?

"Under the Surface" is a poignant coming-of-age tale about resilience, self-discovery, and the quest for unconditional love in a world that often misunderstands.
