Three troubled teenagers struggle against abuse and trauma to find their own way in life in this heartrending series debut.
For as long as she can remember, Runo has felt different from everyone else. In foster care since the age of three, she’s struggled with years of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. Closing herself off to the world, she seeks comfort between the lines of great poetry—and the reassuring sting of a razor.
Johnny left his pill-popping mother behind for a new town. But it’s hard to fit in, especially when he finds himself drawn to a mysterious girl who can quote his favorite lines of poetry. And things don’t get easier when she disappears without a trace.
At the age of fourteen, Sylvia is committed to the psych ward for attempting suicide. For solace, she turns to alcohol and the attention of older men. Still growing up, all three face a life of misery . . . but is there truly no escape from fate?
