The story takes place in April of 1980, in Waco, Texas. It follows a rambunctious young girl named Debbie. Debbie's mother passed away before she was old enough to remember her, and two years ago her father remarried to a woman with a son named Kianu and a daughter. Her mother treats her poorly, her father ignores her, her brother harasses her, and her sister looks up to her. The only person she's able to talk to is Father Tran, a priest who had been friends with her father in the past and in love with her mother. (Mangatraders)
