Jeanette Connor's struggle to reclaim her life carries her to California—a land of opportunity—and looming nightmares.
It's winter in Chicago, 1955, and Jeanette Conner is on the brink of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. A contract with the New York City Ballet. But her mother has other ideas for the 16-year-old prodigy, and a tragic die is cast. Thrown into deep depression by her mother's actions, the teenager shifts her trust to the wrong people. This earns her a kidnapping and a violent turn as a teenage prostitute, ending when she is left for dead in a snow-covered vacant lot.
Rescued in time by a twist of fate, she must now put her broken body and shattered emotions back together.
