As Talia becomes a teenager, her parents open-door policy begins to irritate her. When Gabrielle Markus, an eccentric twenty-three-year old ballet dancer shows up one day, Talias life is turned upside down. Convinced that Gabrielle is harboring a secret, Talia and her friends set out to uncover it.
