It isn't easy being Nikki. Living in a small Texas town with her abusive family and bullies at school, some folks just can't catch a break. But then a gift from Nikki's dearly departed grandmother changes her life. It's a gift that allows Nikki to explore her creativity and create things. Things made of metal, and when Nikki figures out that those things can be used to protect herself against her tormentors, she does so, and so much more. But how far will Nikki's rampage go, when will it end, and who and what will be left of them when she's finished?
