Scandalous

On the surface, Donesha and her relatives appear to be grieving a death together. Beneath that calm, the family is hiding a tangle of secrets, betrayals, lies and scandal. Donesha has no way to take revenge on the person who attacked her, but her therapy sessions give her the nerve to confront what she has been avoiding. Seeking relief, she throws herself into street life and a string of casual affairs, which only deepens her confusion and pain. With little left to lose, she resolves to shape her own future and pursue happiness on her own terms. Her choices carry a steep price, because sex, lies and money are all tangled together, and the people around her are about to feel the fallout.
