Description

Seventeen-year-old Stevie is trapped in her life and body, struggling to cope with the devastating impact of trauma and loss. Now at an eating-disorder treatment center in the New Mexico desert, she faces a regime of strict rules and intrusive surveillance.

The centre's aim may be to help Stevie recover, but for her, it's a nightmare come true. With just twenty-seven days until the anniversary of her brother Josh's death - a tragedy she feels responsible for - Stevie is determined not to stay long enough to face the truth about herself.

As she navigates the complexities of her eating disorder and grapples with the question of whether she can ever find absolution for past mistakes, Stevie must confront the darkest corners of her own mind. Will she find a way to heal, or will the weight of her secrets prove too much to bear?
