After she's brutally raped and beaten, she wants out. She tries hard to build a calm, mainstream life, but it soon becomes clear that's an impossibility in this town.Her meathead brother-in-law, Wood, shows up on her doorstep with a shaky story about her sister skipping town. Wood dumps his special-needs stepson on Claire and slinks back to the city, where he's been secretly running a casino scam.
