Ellen has been an outsider since she was a child. In fact, she has done everything in her power to make herself seem completely invisible to those around her. She rarely leaves her apartment except to work the night shift at Costco. Then Ellen meets a charismatic blind woman named Temerity and surprises herself by stepping in to save her from two violent muggers. Sparking an intense friendship, the unlikely pair begin a journey filled with intrigue, humour and surprises.
