TLDR: Sheltered, almost-18 year old woman, newly orphaned by neglectful parents, must move in with estranged "Step Uncle" and his 2 sons. Grooming, cringe, verbal abuse, SA, ick and all other flavors of unseemly circumstances ensue. Young woman, ultimately failed by every adult in her life, almost ends up ok but in the end, understandably based on circumstances, chooses poorly for herself after all. The end.
