From the back cover

During the poorest year of her life, nineteen-year-old Tara deliberately crushes two fingers in a factory machine to pay for her grandmother's surgery. The factory owner, Mr. Miller, and his wife, Mrs. Miller, offer her $80,000 in compensation, but Tara accepts only the $30,000 she needs and pushes the rest back.

Years later, Tara sees news that the factory has burned down. Mr. Miller is dead of a heart attack, his wife has vanished, and their twelve-year-old son has been sent to foster care. Staring at the boy's terrified eyes, Tara pours the pills she meant to swallow down the drain and chooses to live one more time.

She still carries the guilt of her severed fingers, yet knows she would do it all again, because back then she truly had nowhere else to turn.

The factory owner frowned, his face etched with genuine pain, and offered me $80,000 in compensation. Guilt-ridden, I only accepted the $30,000 I needed.

Years passed. Grandma has long since left this world.
