Em Watts is on the run! She's escaping from school, work, family, friends, and even herself. With everyone she loves furious at her for reasons she can't explain, and only the live Stark Angel fashion show on New Year's Eve to anticipate, Em feels she's reached the end of her rope... What's the point of going on?

But when she uncovers the truth about Nikki's secret, she realizes there's only one person she can turn to for help. Will Christopher be able to set aside his personal feelings and assist her in exposing her employer to the world? Is it even fair to involve Christopher, knowing that if he agrees, Stark Enterprises might try to have them both eliminated - this time, permanently?

Maybe it would be better to keep on running...
