An alcoholic mother trying to flee her life, moves to a new house with her young son where she must battle her addiction as she is confronted by a real-life monster.

Lucky has never actually been lucky, ...despite his nickname. Only a few people know Lucky's deep, dark secret. When his former boss beats Lucky's kid brother half to death, Lucky is forced back into a life of crime with one big heist that sounds too good to be true. Teamed with his former crew, an ex-girlfriend who despises him and the two psychotic female bodyguards of his former boss, Lucky knows he is in over his head. To make matters worse, Lucky doesn't actually know what he is stealing and why his former boss is so desperate to have it. Lucky forges ahead with the burglary only to realize that he might be stealing from something supernatural, and that his whole team may be out to get him.

As her days of being just a kid dwindle, pre-teen Sam (don't call her Samantha) begins to learn the unique rules of her generation as she navigates the world-changing events of the 90s and the growing pains and pressures of Junior High.
