Overview
"Poppy Flower, her name an unfortunate adornment stemming from the full bloom of her parent’s now faded affections, has held the title of Boston Black Cab’s best private car service driver for just over a year, and it’s one she would like to keep. When Mai, a teenager fleeing a human trafficking ring, climbs into the back of Poppy’s cab, Poppy tries to unload the girl and get back to work. Unfortunately, human connections are not shaken off as easily as Poppy wishes, and Mai won’t let help pass her by. Before Poppy can convince Mai to look someplace else for help, Poppy’s aunt kicks her out of their shared abode, and Poppy loses her job for picking up a passenger illegally. Adrift, Poppy scrambles to try to hold together the fraying pieces of her life while Mai clings to her, somehow taking Poppy’s rickety raft for a flotation device." --Abstract.
