Amerie receives an email at work that Return-to-Work is being mandated for her office. This is a problem, as she has been secretly living in her office for the last nine months because she can't afford both rent and her out of pocket payments for her curse-based illness.
As a retired tall-ship sailor, a failed academic, and a reluctant finance professional, Cara Mast gets stopped constantly in New York City and asked for directions. Cara spends their free time drinking coffee, binging words, and yelling about the Philadelphia Eagles in bars they’ve thankfully not yet been kicked out of.
