After her opponent rapes her, a transwoman who is a boxer takes a job as the head of security of a women’s shelter where she eventually becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation. Unbeknownst to the police, many of the others who work or stay at the shelter have violent pasts and dark secrets that may make them responsible for the crime.
A city women’s shelter is a much-needed sanctuary for residents and staff, most of whom have experienced some form of abuse and sexual assault. When an unidentified dead body turns up at the shelter, two detectives launch interrogations that stand to reveal the complex pasts and motives that force staff members to keep secrets.
At an Austin, Texas women's shelter, the murder of a mysterious victim on the premises upends the already troubled daily lives of its staff and residents, including a transgender ex-boxer who is questioned by police first.
