Fix by J. Albert Mann
After the surgery, however, Eve becomes increasingly reliant on painkillers she very affectionately calls "Roxy." At first, no one notices. Her mother, Lydia, and her "School Within a School" buddy Thomas all just see a girl in pain who is trying to recover from a major surgery.
Things start to get a bit out of hand, all too quickly. One pill is not enough, she starts taking more in shorter intervals, and people begin to notice changes in Eve. Eve begins to notice herself changing too, but she very easily rationalizes her behaviors. When no one steps in, things continue to snowball and her relationships with her friends and family become threatened.
Will addiction ruin everything? Is there anything or anyone that can save Eve from this self-destructive behavior?
