Stepping On Life's Cracks

When you think your life is rough, look at Astrid Henderson's life. Her mother died when she was born, and her father blames her for that. He hates her so much, that she feels alone in the world, no mother, no man that is worthy of the name father, and no friends. When Astrid witnesses a terrible event at a party, she shuts herself up inside her room, and won't talk to anyone! Who will bring her back into the light?
