Aspen Millar- aspiring novelist... and cashier. Her life is as normal as anyone's could be living in an apartment with roommates who host a book club focussed around female feminist writers and scripts, and someone working at Good Vibrations. However, out of the blue, her coworker and "friend" go missing for two weeks, and once they return, they've changed way more than just their physical appearance. While it's difficult to cope with these situations, she really has no choice. It's all part of growing up.
