Enquanto Hephzi é linda e voluntariosa, Reb sofre da Síndrome de Treacher Collins - que deformou enormemente seu rosto - e é mais cuidadosa.Apesar de suas diferenças, as garotas são como quaisquer irmãs: implicam uma com a outra, mas se amam e se defendem. E também guardam um segredo terrível como só irmãos conseguem guardar.

E só Rebecca, que esteve o tempo todo ao lado da irmã, sabe a verdadeira causa de sua morte...Hephzi sonhara escapar, mas falhara. Será que Rebecca poderia encontrar, finalmente, a liberdade?
