Sierra was nine years old and was living with two abusive parents who wished that she had never been born. To them, Sierra was a mistake, a malady that was wasting their money by living. Both parents were severe alcoholics, use drugs more than they took their daily supplements, and had been more irresponsible than a toddler in raising their nine year old daughter. All Sierra wanted in life was for someone to love her, to hold her, and tell her that she matters. Unable to cope with what happens to her on a daily basis at home, Sierra goes to extreme measures to escape the realities of the real world. She heads out onto the streets as a runaway to avoid getting beaten by her parents, and in doing so, gets abducted by a new stranger who has a sick plan of forcing people to his will. She meets a group of kids living in an old abandoned mansion in the middle of nowhere where this man has stashed them all. These kids, all abused and alone like her, take her in, and Sierra must learn how to accept people into her life and not be afraid as she once was. Will things turn out for better or for worse with Sierra, and will she ever be able to look at herself without seeing the pathetic girl she viewed herself as before she ran away?
