"Her heart continued to beat, without her consent, without her participation. It forced blood through every vein, prolonging her miserable existence. A convoluted kind of self-rape."

While most of the world prepares to celebrate a new beginning, Sarah Brekker plans her final ending.

After years of abuse, the death of her grandmother, and her enslavement by Master Dep, she has nothing left to give. All that's left is to take. With December 31st circled and her liqour cabinet stocked, Sarah begins her final battle-coming to terms with her own death.

But Life doesn't give up so easily. Through a series of chance encounters and colourful strangers, Sarah comes to realize that the darkness she's been living in might not be as inescapable as she's been led to believe. There's a Light at the end of the tunnel, will she be brave enough to run to it?

Masters is a raw exploration of a woman's battle with abuse, the devastating desolation it leaves behind, and how one compassionate stranger can change everything.
