She has only the vaguest notion that there is something wrong with the abuse she endures and instead dreams of the outside world.</p><p>And then one day Aggie walks out and like the armadillos that flourish in Texas' barren landscape she is a survivor...</p><p>In her escape she gravitates to those who are just as maltreated as her. They offer Aggie the sense of family albeit a thoroughly dysfunctional one that she's been searching for. But when she gets embroiled in a crisis involving stolen money Aggie soon realises there are some problems you can't run away from.</p>
