Broken Daughters, Burning Hearts
After being lured to a remote mountain town by a fake reality show casting, Charity finds herself trafficked and forced into a violent captivity. She endures brutal treatment, witnesses the fates of other victims, and clings to small acts of resistance and hope. Through the desperate intervention of her mother, who risks everything to set a fire and orchestrate Charity’s escape, Charity finally reaches safety—though her mother disappears in the process. The story explores cycles of abuse, survival, and the transcendent, sacrificial power of a mother’s love.
