(Content note: sexual assault, homicide) After her transition to a new gender identity in middle age, Annie’s relationship with her cousin and friend Michael takes a turn.

After surviving 18 months of abuse, solitary confinement, and a serial killer cellmate with a hatred of transgender people, she is coerced into a plea deal that brands her for life as a convicted first-degree murderer. Annie begins a final fight to find a way back to family, love and the safety of home.
