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: Anna is suing her parents for the rights to her own body . . .
