While she is making plans for a better future through her writing, a face from the past shows up and forces her to deal with a long-buried secret.
Although justice may be too late in Roxy’s situation, she will do anything to ensure it never happens to anyone else. To do that, though, requires her to dredge up memories better left forgotten.
The storyline is packed with flavor in this family drama. The characters are realistic, dealing with challenging circumstances.
