SYNOPSIS:

A girl with mysterious tattoos and an equally mysterious history, moves into suicidal Drew's apartment complex. Persephone, while pretty, is hardly a likable girl, but Drew quickly discovers he in fact does like her, and that she has some good reasons for wanting to be left alone. While cultist followers who want her to return search for her, and a former co-leader wants her dead, Drew sets out to save Persephone with the aid of his close friend, Nathan, and discovers he may actually have something to live for after all.
