Keira is a neglected 11-year-old who steals from pregnant women in the prenatal class at her local pool. She is left on her own a lot, and when she’s home, her caretaker Beth is too busy enjoying the heady, hedonistic freedoms of young adulthood and new romance to pay Keira much attention.
Starved of care and attention, Keira attempts to fit into Beth’s world as quietly as possible. But when she discovers Beth’s dreams for the future, Keira acts out and threatens the very existence of their small family.
