In the darkest of times, she finds an inner strength - and a secret hideaway - that reveals more than she ever could imagine, helping her persevere.Pulling from Tara Pelletier's real life experiences, this compelling story is a portrayal of what it looks like to survive, navigating a home that feels like a prison.
