Over two traumatic days, Livvy Higgs is besieged by a series of small heart attacks.

Caught between a troubled past and her tenuous circumstances, Livvy is forced to pick apart the untruths told by her greedy, prideful father and her formidable grandmother, knowing that the past and the present are inextricably entwined.
