Summary
AU. When Carla Connor is released from prison, her new living situation turns dangerous. Desperate, she reaches out to Betsy Swain, an old fellow inmate at Norcross. Standing in the way of salvation is Betsy's mother, Lisa, a former detective who retired on medical grounds and is not impressed by Carla's appearance in their lives.
