Eleven-year-old Dahlia fights for survival and peace in the unforgiving world of preteen dance competitions while fending off a demanding and abusive mother. While working diligently to achieve a dream that isn't her own, her trauma catches up with her: she accidentally summons a revenge demon who won't leave her alone until he pinpoints a victim. These two become unlikely friends, and Dahlia learns how to fearlessly claim agency in a world that systematically tries to steal it from her.
