Growing up, Annette Goode thought all men were as low-down as the father who deserted her and her mother for another woman, and the men who used and abused her along the way didn't do much to change her impression. But now, after decades of soul-searching - and mountains of heartache - she has reunited with the father she never really knew. Things start to go wrong again, though, when her fiance learns of her past and disappears. But it's when Rhoda, the girl who murdered one of Annette's abusers, shows up that she must look into her heart and decide what to believe.
