In the early 20th Century, in a so-called civilized world on the brink of war, Eve endures. Far from the powder keg of Europe, in Connecticut, she endures a marriage to an abusive, jealous, monstrous man. And when her husband commits her to an asylum for the mentally ill as a convenient means by which to control her, into the care of a doctor determined to drive her mad, she endures that, too.

Until Thor finds her trapped inside the ward, beaten and broken. Until the doctor and her husband conspire to push her just too far beyond the limits of her self-control.

Until she cannot endure any of it for even one moment longer.

[CW: Verbal and physical abuse, miscarriage, abortion, self-harm, suicidal ideation, eugenics.]
