{ de·tach·ment } dəˈtaCHmənt/ noun 1. to distance oneself from future stressful situations by maintaining emotional distance from others. --- Tessa Gunn is used to running away. Never get attached, she whispers to herself on a daily basis. Now, she lives in one of the worst neighbourhoods of Vancouver by herself, where crime and poverty is the absolute everyday norm. Her life manly consists of drinking until she passes out at a notoriously-known bar, where she meets and has one-night stands with other men. One night, she meets a mysterious man with a dark broken gaze and a mind full of secrets he won't share. But this man she meets makes her change her mind about everything she's ever known. For all of these years, she's been in pain and suffering and she's been detached from anyone, but does she still want that?
