Mara Jarvis has been on autopilot for years, trying to run away from the past without realizing how tightly she's holding onto it. With Charlie as a constant companion, she's never really had to do anything on her own. After an offer to work on a film set with an old college friend, she has one last chance to finally put herself in the right direction before she's fairly certain she'll have to go crawling back to the parents who sent her running in the first place. Maybe if she can focus clearly, if she works hard enough, if she pleases the right people - if she can just get Charlie to stop yapping in her ear all the time - then maybe... maybe... maybe she can stop the crazy and finally start living again.
