Jay is 18. She has spent 10 of those 18 years being more of an adult than the other grown-up presences in her life, and today she is finally fed up. Fed up with the abuse. Fed up with the negligence. Fed up with the drugs and sex and rules and regulations that bind her to her quickly disintegrating life. So, driven by her frustration as well as a fear that her 6-year-old sister Katie will experience the same cycle, Jay decides to take action. But the road to escape is not an easy one to find, and along the way she realizes that she cannot make it alone. The story of Jay weaves a raw, realistic tale of the trapped victim trying to find a way out.
