| Cathy is an academically gifted mixed-race teenager who struggles with invasive thoughts and visual hallucinations. Everything she knows changes when her family moves from a large town in Oxfordshire to a small village in South Wales. Torn from her long-time untroubled home, loving relatives living nearby and her only friend, Cathy, must navigate her issues in a new country, new people, and new social cues. But that's not all that changes. Cathy struggles to find her way in a city where kids aren't friendly, with no friends at school, and feels as isolated at home with her feuding parents.
As problems within the family spiral out of control, so does Cathy's mind. She fights daily to figure out the difference between reality and delusions, with a head plagued by voices.
When Cathy wakes up in a hospital psychiatric ward after a failed suicide attempt, she knows one thing - choosing to live can mean so much more than not dying.
After a three-year stay in a psychiatric institution, Cathy is finally considered fit to face the world outside and is released.
Cathy has had no visitors or spoken to her family throughout her stay in this institution, following her dad's death in the house fire and her mum's hospitalisation and maybe death.
Her mum shows up a day before her release, and Cathy is surprised and angry with her. She has lived the past three years as an orphan.
When Cathy agrees to go home with her mum, there is a ray of hope for her, and their relationship seems genuinely on the mend. But who has been released? Can Cathy honestly forget their past? And is she able to forgive? Or will the past catch up to them and ruin everything? |
