Anna Fitzgerald doesn't want her sister to die. But she's sick of helping her to live.
Anna was born to be a perfect genetic match for Kate, who at just two years old was diagnosed with a rare form of leukaemia. For thirteen years, she has acted as donor to her sister.
Now, Kate needs a kidney, and nobody is asking Anna how she feels about it, they're just assuming she will donate.
Until the sheriff serves the papers that will rock their family's world: Anne is suing her parents for the rights to her own body...
