(3) YA Sphinxie (girl) and Cadence (boy), childhood best friends, are separated after Cadence violently attacks Sphinxie. Years later, when news comes that Cadence has cancer, Sphinxie is determined to stay with him until he dies, no matter what the risk. This disturbing but poetically written portrait of emotional and physical abuse explores the motivations of victims and abusers on multiple levels.
