Synopsis

Jess is tanking in Physics, so her mom, Doris, hires Lloyd to help her pass. But she’d rather study his son, the survivor of a lightning strike that killed his girlfriend a year ago, and tattooed his body with elegant scars. When Lloyd and Doris hit it off, these two broken families are bound ever closer, inexorably—with explosive results. An intricate, atmospheric tale of love, sex, and the unseen forces that draw us together and drive us apart.
