Race, sex, and justice... 

In 1950, in a world before #MeToo, charming Jake plays fast and loose with the women -- until the conservative Alice stops him short.
Their romance changes the rogue ... or seems to.

On the other side of the tracks, a brain-damaged teen in the "crazy house" delivers a mixed-race baby.
Her sister Ruby races to rescue the child -- and find the white man who did this.
When the baby brings them all together, each one -- Jake, Alice, and Ruby -- has secrets to preserve, as they wrestle with rage and fear, doubts and suspicions.

Victims and villains merge and morph in this deeply emotional story of competing and intertwining motives. 
  • Can racism be right? 
  • Can sexism be acceptable? 
  • Can violence be justified?
