Summary

Fired from her job and spurned by her lover, Elsa Fisher retreats to Los Angeles to blow her severance package on pills, booze, room service, and sex, in equal excess. Lost, lonely, and full of rage, Elsa is hell-bent on self destruction. But when she reconnects with old friends, who think she's on "vacation," for a trip to Catalina Island, her recklessness exposes painful memories and dark desires, putting everyone in the group at risk.
