But Riley refuses to go down without a fight. She fights back, but it only makes things worse. The beatings get worse and more frequent and soon it's a matter or staying alive. After another brutal beating, Riley's father leaves her on the side of the road to die. Here is where she is found by Jeremiah. But Jeremiah isn't who he says he is. He has a secret, and in Riley's world, secrets are a dangerous thing.
