The Mad Ones

<p>Mad to live mad to talk mad to be saved...<br /> <br /> 18-year-old Samantha Brown sits in a hand-me-down car with the keys clutched in her hand. Caught between a yearning for the unknown and feeling bound by expectation she telescopes back to a time before her world had fallen apart. As she relives her senior year we meet Sam's well-intentioned helicopter mother Bev and her high school sweetheart of a boyfriend Adam but it's her painfully alive best friend Kelly that haunts her. Kelly was everything Sam is not - impetuous and daring. She pushed Sam to break rules and do the unexpected. When Kelly's killed in a car wreck Sam loses not only her best friend but also the part of herself that was learning to be brave. Now Sam has to make a decision. Will she follow her mother's dreams for her or will she summon the courage to drive away from her friends and family into a future she can't imagine?</p>
