Life is unkind to the young and attractive Fyre (Lynn Theel) before she even has a chance to grow up: At 17, she’s brutally raped by two men; shortly thereafter, her entire family dies in a car crash. In time, the emotional damage from these tragedies helps draws her into a life of prostitution in Los Angeles. Fyre's chances of finding happiness look that much slimmer when she takes up with the sinister Nick Perrine (Tom Baker).
