As the older twin, Thorne grows up under a lopsided split‑household arrangement: his working‑class father provides for him, while his wealthy mother spoils younger brother Torin.
For their 17th birthday, he gets a used tablet, and Torin receives a costly diamond watch. When Thorne learns his mother sold his grandfather’s heirloom brooch to buy Torin’s watch — and refuses his college tuition — he demands what is his.
Though he wins back his money, his mother strikes back. He strives to break her control and chase his dreams.
Will he ever fully outrun his mother’s cruelty?
