They say Beauty is found within.

They don't say what else may lurk beneath the skin...

Since she was a child, Beauty has heard voices that no one else does. Occasionally appearing as bobbing heads or inky shadows, these voices have tempted her, taunted her, and tormented her. As she grows, so do they, crowding her mind: eight voices, eight oppressors, all determined to control her from the inside out. They whisper ominously about her background, her family, and her identity itself: Don't forget what you are-what you truly are.

As their influence over her increases, Beauty uncovers painful revelations about her past that send her spiraling. Desperate and despairing, she journeys from one low to the next-through devastating loss, a stint in a mental institution, and an ill-fated romance with a married man.

In her lowest moments, she finds herself ready to give up and give in to the voices. Can she be free from their iron grip? Can she find her own name, her own identity?

Can what was broken ever be Redeemed?
