Side Effects

After decades of silence, Karma awakens to confront humanity's amnesia about their divinity-and the misuse of her name. Determined to become a better human, she tells her story from within the lives of four women wrestling with guilt, grief, loneliness, and transformation.

Treesy Sands, a wealthy business owner, carries the weight of family tragedy and secrets threatening her new future. Her twin sister, Twinkle Sands, struggles with deteriorating eyesight and a fractured bond, hoping experimental surgery can heal her lonely heart. Luci Packens craves her mother's love and a sister's connection, while Tracy Wright, a foster child turned undercover IRS agent, must face her past to protect her future.

As these women confront their inner demons, Karma's therapeutic narration offers a path toward healing and rebirth. But will they rise above their pasts before the side effects become their last?
