It's mere chance that leads her to the secluded home of a kindly elderly woman and her deaf teenage granddaughter, Echo. Here, April finds a refuge from her mixed-up life and from the confusion that severed her relationship with Brenda. But when a dangerous couple arrives with greedy intentions, April discovers that they will take advantage of her very special relationship with Echoto get what they want. Now, April's survival depends on being true to the one person she's never fully accepted: herself.
