The haunting story of a family, a neighborhood, and a girl who longs to escape. Shadowed by the loss of her mother, her family begins to disintegrate as the narrator bears witness to friends toying with death by train, by car, and by fire, until one disappears, maybe for good. She feels she'll follow her mother to an early grave if she can't escape the madness of her own decaying life.
