Each revelation pulls Leslie deeper into a web of deceit and betrayal that threatens not only her family but her own sense of identity.
As she navigates this treacherous landscape, Leslie grapples with an internal struggle: should she expose the truth and risk tearing her family apart, or remain silent to protect those she loves? The stakes escalate when Leslie realizes that Vernon will stop at nothing to maintain his power and keep the truth buried. Her journey becomes a battle not just for justice for her mother, but for her own survival.
As the tension mounts, Leslie’s determination to uncover the truth leads her down a perilous path.
