Tammy Pendleton thinks she's broken beyond repair. Sheltered by her parents, a victim of sexual abuse, she wants to escape but doesn't know how. Until her cousin Clara leads her away from the Pendleton estate, and into Clearwater. Orion Bennett is a motor-head who works at Pete's Service Station. At nineteen, he is battling depression. But he's also suffering with trigeminal neuralgia--the suicide disease--and he's desperate to escape the pain. When Tammy wanders into the shop one day, she finds herself strangely comforted by the scents and sounds of the garage. Although the pain they suffer is very different, they discover comfort and understanding in one another. The companionship they share has the power to heal. The question is, will they let it?
