Michelle loves her daughter named Harmony, four-years old and quite a bundle. Michelle's husband, however, is something else altogether. An alcoholic in the making, Carl often gets blasted while bar drinking before he comes home from work and beats Michelle, even in front of their daughter. Michelle finally leaves her husband with Harmony in tow and visits Jessica, Michelle's paternal grandmother and with whom she'd grown up as a child after her parents died in a terrible automobile accident. One thing leads to another, and life becomes a disaster for the family, forced on the run, split from one another, and ultimately facing the law with surprises at every turn. It begins as a story often told, and ends with so many revelations, it's difficult to keep count.
