DAMAGED GOODS, is a powerful story about three sisters who are subjected to a childhood of unrelenting abuse at the hands of their father. But it is human nature to seek escape from the violent and isolated prison they live in, and each of them chooses a different path out of their own personal nightmare. In a world where being a girl is fraught with danger, the eldest, Sis, becomes a manwoman. The youngest, Sweetypie, loses her mind and becomes a childwoman. The middle sister, Helen, first takes the ultimate revenge to save her sisters and then puts the distance of geography between herself and her past, becoming a woman to be envied and admired by all. Fifty years after leaving, Helen returns to her childhood home to find Sis and Sweetypie much as she had left them. Or so it seems at first, until she discovers secrets within secrets and an act of vengeance that still haunts their lives. So begins a journey for each of them that will ultimately end in tragedy, closure and release.
