Heroine
​​by Mindy McGinnis

Picture
College bound softball star Mickey Catalan is injured in a car crash just before the season starts, and she hopes to keep her spot as catcher as the team makes a tournament run. Her prescription pain pills make her feel good and soon she becomes dependent upon them and in the company of a new circle of friends who encourage her to use more and more. As the pressure to perform grows and her need increases, she starts spiraling dangerously out of control.
