The Bad Place: A little girl discovers the secret behind her brother’s disappearance - and an outlandish time-travel plan to save her from their abusive father that might do more harm than good.

Queen: A middle-aged woman in a frigid marriage discovers her experimental age-defying treatment may be something more than skin deep.
