for the very first time! Teenage Ellie has always romanticized drug
addicts, those tragic artistic souls drawn to needles and pills,
ever since the death of her junkie mother ten years ago. But when
Ellie lands in an upscale rehab clinic where nothing is as it
appears to be, she'll find another-more dangerous-romance, and
discover how easily drugs and murder go hand-in-hand. MY HEROES

this intense story and unapologetically cunning character."

satisfying-and heartbreaking... a fine addition to a staggering
body of work." -Library Journal (starred review) "Like most
CRIMINAL stories, there's a darkness, along with twists that cut to
the core. Phillips' art utilizes a limited color palette that makes
you feel the ideas that run through each scene, each of the
narrator's thoughts and memories." -LAist
