Tara Connelly was just released from 525 days in a medium- security women's prison. She survived 18 months of bad food, prison rules, and navigating the cliquey social structure, but now she has to survive life in the real world. A 30-year-old woman with no real crutch to lean on- just two older siblings who can't be bothered to come pick her up from prison and a nephew she hasn't seen since she was arrested, Tara is set on somehow getting her life together and never going back to prison. Things with her ex- the reason she went to prison- remain unresolved, but she wants nothing to do with him. An encounter with the detective who arrested her leads to more questions than answers. How exactly did Tara end up in prison? Why didn't her ex have to do time? Will her family get their act together and begin supporting each other like family, not like people who share the same home?
